370,000 doors knocked on this week in PA by Obama volunteers
PA. Governor Ed Rendell was quoted in the Harrisburg Patriot-News this morning:

"Just this past week, the Obama campaign knocked on 370,000 doors in Pennsylvania and made 720,000 telephone contacts. That's an extraordinary figure."

1. But how many of those doors were opened and phones were answered?
I went canvassing today in Westmoreland Co. Huge waste of time, IMO. People either not home or just don't answer their doors. Of the few we talked to, they were already supporting Obama.

2. What time of day were you canvassing?
Best time during the week is between 3 and 5 pm, which may be hard to do in Westmoreland County.

3. Sunday afternoon. 1 to 3 pm.
Since there was a Steelers game at 4:00, we didn't want to bother people after that.

4. Seemed like a good time...
... during the week from 3 to 5 works for me, results may vary, as they say. :-)

5. I'm in NY....
I can either vote here, or go to PA and help get out the vote for Mon and Tues. Which do you think is better use of my time?

I'll take the trip if that is what is needed more; just hooked up w/ a friend there near Perkasie.



Any thoughts?
