Volunteering 2!

Last night I went back to the Obama campaign office to do some more volunteer work. With me were, Carrie, Tyler, and Sarah! We were kind of hoping to make phone calls this time, but once again we found ourselves walking door to door. At least we didn't have to deal with the rain, but it still got dark pretty fast. We started out well, the first two houses we went to, not only answered the door, but were for Obama!! The second guy even tried to give us some tips for getting young voters to the polls. As we moved on though fewer and fewer houses answered the door, even if they were home! We could see them in the kitchen, but they didn't bother coming. Also, more people simply refused to answer our questions. They said they did not have time, or wouldn't share their views. We had one house on our list that had a McCain/Palin yard sign. Thank goodness they weren't home! We did end the night on a good note though. Our last house had two people that were voting for Obama, and their little boy even offered us a snack for our hard work! Back at the office, we had to tally all of our information that we collected. It was a little sad to see how little we had actually done. We knocked on about forty doors, but only got information for twenty or so people.
