Had some de Blasio campaign workers knock on my door. I said I am voting straight Dem ticket.

All the people I am voting for I expect to win. I live in one of the only competitive city council races in the city and our democratic city council member Vincent Gentile should easily win this time. We may have 3-5 republicans in a 51 member chamber.

I am voting for Kenneth Thompson for DA of Brooklyn against Charles Hynes.

Volunteer came down my 150 ft driveway, walked up to the house and knocked on the door... She was a lovely gal with white hair to her shoulders... Looked at the stack of campaign signs by the door and said to my hubby "I guess I don't need to ask you to come out and vote"

He said, "not really, my wife and I are working our local polling station from 6am -10am"
LOL!

First time in a decade that anyone has ever knocked on our door to GOTV, we are way out there! "

I live in Indiana and contributed to the de Blasio campaign early in the cycle when I didn't think he had a chance at the nomination. I'm over the moon to see him poised to win the mayor's race.
