The shot heard ‘round the world!
Just made my 20 today. I got cleared to do more, but couldn’t seem to make the link work. Whatever, I budget for 20 calls a Saturday anyway.
Myself, I get a lot of answering machines, hang ups, and wrong numbers. I got one live Obama supporter out of 20 calls today, and one live McCain supporter. I usually call Nevada.
Yes, I read it and posted on it.
I’m worried about the mail, too, so will be hand delivering my husband’s absentee vote to the poll on election day (when I vote in person).
Great accomplishment to get that behind you.
Texas starts early voting on Monday the 20th and runs until the 31st. I like the early voting process.
We received our ballots today in the mail too, so there will be 4 more Oregon votes for McCain/Palin from my household in Oregon. We will drop them off in the next day or two, so we’re up to 5 for them in Oregon!
I’m calling in battleground states and finding more McCain supporters than 0. You’ve got to go through lots of numbers and certain times during the day you’ll get lots of answering machines. Early mornings and later in the day. Afternoons is when you get lots of answering machines.
We don’t have a choice in Oregon. All ballots are mailed to the voters.
Voted for McCain/Palin(wishing Palin was number one, but what the heck she will be 2012)every other republican on the ballot,voted against the encumbents for the school board and voted yes on Prop 8(CA). Did my duty and I feel great. I think we are going to win. Forget the frickin’ polls, just a little advice from me:)
As you drive down the road, interstates, neighborhoods etc
the # of McCain/Palin yard signs out number 0bambis by
a large amount. Sure you see 0 bumper stickers, but by far
McCain/Palin are leading the way.
Of course I’m serious. You’ve got to go through lots of numbers...I get a few BHO supporters I’m finding more McCain supporters. I have people who tell me they are supporting McCain and hang up. It’s like they are hiding and aren’t interested in letting me go through the survey yet they do want me to know that’s who they will be voting for in a very hurried way. I’ve had many whisper it to me.
Around here (’The People’s Republic of Madistan’) you can rest assured that EVERY house NOT displaying a sign is a vote for McCain/Palin.
Only the ObamaBots feel the need to advertise. :)
There is more than one red county in CA, Amador, Calaveras, Eldorado just to name 3 other Red counties. Orange county also. Most of the northeast counties are Red.
Wish you had sent it certified mail. How honest are the ones collecting the early ballots? I would not trust a pick up in Palm Beach County!!!!!
“I feel like an early skirmisher or something.”
Col. Joshua Chamberlain is proud of you.
My mom always took me to the polls. Back then Mom voted for the family and the way her and Dad had decided. I thank her for that. I also thank you for in-stilling that right and duty to your daughter.
In Massachusetts, there usually are close to no campaign signs out for any Republican POTUS candidates during each and every Presidential election year, but I’m seeing quite a few more McCain/Palin signs than what has been the “political norm” for Massachusetts. This is really a good “sign” for McCain/Palin, even in the profoundly blue state of Massachusetts.
Voted early for the first time in my life today for Mac and Palin. From the conversations and the looks on the faces it was probably about a two thirds majority Republican. It’s Tennessee after all. A large turnout for a beautiful fall day, the ones with the sour looks on their faces,I assumed to be dims
“I made a point to bring my 6 yr old daughter to the polls and explain to her what a important right we have, as citizens to vote”
Why didn’t you get her registered to vote with acorn?
I got my vote in last week. For all the good it will do here in Cali.
