DFA post: Climbing the steps for Hackett. Nice write-up.


Just a couple of special parts of the post, getting out and talking to people in their yards and on the street.

"Canvassing was great (except for the steps). It was a beautiful afternoon so some folks were not at home, but we left flyers for them to find when they returned. And those who were home were happy to hear about Paul, many were already planning to vote for him, but others had not made up their minds so we did our best to persuade them to vote for Paul.

But the most exciting part of the afternoon was talking to people who were not on our walk lists. It was a beautiful day so there were lots of people out working in their yards and we stopped to talk to all of them. Some of them were not aware of the election and some were simply not planning to vote. Marian and I made sure that everyone we talked to knew about the special election and the importance of their vote. We also made sure that they knew that Paul is a candidate who cares about them and who will represent his district with honesty and integrity. I think we persuaded a number of them to vote on Tuesday.

It was an exciting afternoon (one that was repeated on Sunday) and, hopefully, a very successful one."
