DU - Give me something good, I just got back from hell
7 hours doing visibility in the hot Miami sun at a polling place in a right-wing haven, getting scowls, glares, and being treated like a leper. Good news (and this is good for the area) is that Kerry was getting about 25%. Better news is that there was almost NOBODY showing up, and I've heard of lines 400 people deep out on Miami Beach (very Dem) so that keeps me going. But damn, that was a rough assignment. It was good to see Election Protection workers on site. But, geez.

Resting up a little before I go over to another precinct for the 4-7 push. How's the buzz?

1. The early buzz is promising
but it ain't over yet. Keeping candles lit, wearing lucky black hoodie, fingers crossed.

Drink something cool, take some deep breaths,
Eat a good meal, don your sunscreen and keep on fighting!

Thank you for your work!
