Welcome to newsletter land! I did several trips to canvas for John Kerry. I had many good conversations with people who said “Wow, I didn’t know that” about one topic or another, or who bought into misinformation that they’d heard. It was a very rewarding experience, even though things didn’t turn out the way we hoped in the election.

I found it rewarding too, although only encountered one woman who was still undecided. Hopefully helped sway her! Most people had already made up their minds. We made sure people knew where to vote. Fingers crossed...

Wow, it's so wonderful to hear more about your canvassing experience, thanks to Substack! This is what makes it feel so good to live in this country, with passionate people like you to support democracy and what is right. I also really enjoyed your humor—like the part about climbing under a rock, LOL! I'm looking forward to more of your posts, whether about music, travel, photography, or anything else. They truly seem to promise a lot of joy and mind-opening!
