Reply #6: I was canvassing for him a week ago, and he was getting good responses at homes in the Valley

(In Juneau, that's the Mendenhall Valley, traditionally the most Republican part of the Juneau Borough.

Also, the polling link DU has on its front page has him only eight points down overall.

A lot of people are backing Lisa because they think she's the only one who can stop Miller.

The big issue is having to show people that it's not that effective to try to stop Miller by backing Lisa as a write-in. What people DON'T know(and I think the McAdams campaign needs to take out a big ad in the ADN and the Empire to point out)is that 10% of the votes for any write-in candidate are traditionally thrown out due to spelling errors.

So, in short, there IS hope.
