Preparing for the Onslaught

Good morning: today is Saturday, which means hordes of volunteers will be descending on the office. Around 10AM or so the buses will begin arriving from NYC for two days of door-to-door canvassing in Doylestown and the surrounding towns in middle and upper Bucks County.
We have spent the last two days preparing for the onslaught. Dozens of info packets with canvassing instructions, policy positions, and Google maps have been created for the visitors.

The main goal of the canvassing is to determine who the Obama and McCain supporters are and who is undecided. A key strategy is to try and persuade the undecideds to move toward Barack.

The canvassers could not have asked for a better day: sunny and in the 60s.

I am off to welcome our visitors. Check in tomorrow for some photos of the day.
