We hit the streets tonight in Cleveland, dropping lit well past dark and in the rain. We finally stopped when we started freaking out the folks at home–can’t blame them, no one wants knocks on their door that late and dark in the evening.
The mailboxes, doors, and porches were loaded with Obama lit though and the people we reached had either already voted (probably about 75% of them) or were planning on voting tomorrow and knew exactly where to go. Good news.
The Obama lit is beautiful. As I said in my tweet, Frame It On Your Wall beautiful. The above is a small example and nowhere near the coolest we’ve collected. On Sunday outside the Board of Elections they passed out posters with Barack quoting Dr. King and talking about “the urgency of now.” Sean claimed it for his office, brat.
One more cool thing and then I’m hitting the hay–the Obama campaign has Red, White, and Blue GOTV teams. The Blue and White team are doors and phones (can’t remember which) and the Red team is focused on poll sites (getting food, umbrellas & even entertainment to voters waiting in line). It’s so cool. When you walk into an Obama HQ you head to the section with the Red, White, or Blue team poster hanging and get your assignment.
Damn, these guys are good.
