Arkansas definitely in play

[triguy46]

My son is in Little Rock and manning the phone lines for the Dems.
He and I were having an email discussion re: polls and whether the cell phone only/no land line issue was undercounting young voters/minority/poor. Here's his take:

AR is definitely in play. There have been some 48-48 polls (as opposed to 39-47 earlier), and positive Kerry trends in others. I have pretty much decided most polls are bogus, as are the "predictor" maps with all the kerry/bush likelies and soft kerry/bush in various shades of red and blue. Bill Clinton will be here Sunday, and you better believe that's going to make a difference. His first day back it was huge on the front page of the AR Dem-Gaz (the main state paper).

Here's what I have noticed during my calling to get people to vote early. We use voter registration lists that have gender and age included. I have yet to get ahold of but a handful of under 30 people if any at all. The other side of that is that almost every (if not all) disconnected numbers I dial are under 30 people. AR also has a very large black community that should go Kerry.

Hope springs eternal

1. Go Bigdawg! If we win in AR he deserves the credit

He talked Kerry out of abandoning efforts there and he will deliver.
