GOTV

Hey guys,

I am once again in my cozy campaign office, getting out the vote (GOTV) for the big day! My candidate has received two pretty sweet endorsements today, one from the State Journal Registrar, Springfield's main newspaper, and also planned parenthood of Illinois. The office is buzzing after getting that news, there is also a great energy due to a lot of volunteer response in our phone banking efforts today. Calling volunteers is always more encouraging than just generally polling people.

On a slightly different note than the campaign, I got two packages in the mail today! Mail is god's gift to college students! My aunt sent me an amazing Halloween care package, stocked with candy and rice crispy treats! Now, the Halloween package was great, but the second package...was the most amazing piece of mail I have ever received. Over the summer I was an intern for a U.S. congressman, and he sent me an official U.S. House of Representative padfolio notebook holder with a sign picture of him and I in it. Completely made my day, week, heck even month!

Ok, my boss just called and I have another list of folks to call to get out the vote!
Have a good one guys!
