This is the first time we matter since at least 1992. I expect the full Iowa treatment, though I know better than to ask someone where the "butter cow" is. What time do I get picked up for a ride to the polling place?

CA might matter this year too, which will be nice.

(10,622 posts)Of the people that answered the door and would talk, after just ten minutes of talk and 15 minutes of my laptop full off facts netted 65% Firmly Sanders and another 15% Probably sanders only 7% Clinton and the rest undecided, also worth noting, I provided forms and netted 32 NEW REGISTERED DEMOCRATS just to vote for Sanders! Now, the affluent 'burbs may go Clinton (or not), but there are a lot more of us in the city than in the $200,000 and up a year crowd!
I took a rest, but next week, I will talk again with the probably Sanders, undecideds and the Hillary's as most of my canvasing was done before the landslide wins.
I don't have a car and have a condition that requires occasional supplemental oxygen, but may try to find a way to extend the distance of my canvasing (I have to walk).
