2. Yep....

So far I've collected nearly 100 signatures for Jeff Stark running for the NYS Senate District #44 agaisnt Hugh Farley. I hate petitioning because its just so horrible to do, but we need change.

Here is one of Mr. Stark's commercials http://youtube.com/watch?v=k58XBrtHUE8&search=jeff%20stark

3. welcome to DU!

I've only got about 30 signatures so far. I'm trying to collect at least 100.

Thanks for the link

4. I can barely stand it,

I'm developing petitioning fever. People saying they like Hugh when they cant even name ONE thing he has done for them. Mostly because he hasn't done anything for them. The old man should have retired 20 years ago.

I hear this is the worst part of the campaign.

I seriously hope so.

5. it is the worst part

best to just get out there and get it over with... I try to get out in under 4 minutes. I made up business cards that I leave with people if they want to contact me.

6. 213!

Thats how many I collected so far.

Not bad eh? I'll probably wind up with over 300.

7. that is awesome!

That is a whole lot of signatures!

[akushuki]

8. It is a lot. I average about 5 an hour but

I have many stories of interesting people I met while petitioning.

[mdmc]

9. I'm averaging about 5 per hour as well

but I have a good 20 or so that I have been getting since 2001, so they come much easier (next door neighbor, friends, roommate). I'm goin out all day tomorrow.

Great work bro!
