Autumn Canvassing in District 8
Yes, we begin this entry with an image of autumn. It's November, and it's canvassing time. Well, really October was too. But it's never too early to start! The KEY to victory in District 8 will be the ground work, the door-to-door, the push through the neighborhoods.
And so for the last four Saturdays, members of my campaign team have been canvassing door-to-door. I have been with them every step of the way (except on Oct 22, when I supervised the children's activities at the East Ridge Pumpkin & Cider Festival). Right now, I want to thank those who have been out there with me during this first month of canvassing:
Pam Ladd
Anna Massey-Ward
Olin Ivey
Samantha Bayles
Dinah Bailes
Jackson Bailes
So what does it mean to canvass? It means being neighborly, saying hello, introducing ourselves, asking for support, making new contacts, reminding citizens that government is about serving them (not the other way around), and giving this campaign the best shot it could ever have.
So what can you do to help me canvass? As the candidate for county commission, I want to personally ask you to give me three hours one Saturday this November. Email me and let me know on what Saturday you could give me a hand. This one commitment would mean the world to me.
