GOTV during rush hour, Rice Lake

I scraped together this group and we waved signs during rush hour on Wisconsin primary day. It appeared above the fold in the Chronotype the day after the election.

The after-work crowd was a bit cranky, with a few people whipping us the bird, or yelling, "No you can't." They were exclusively older, hypertensive-looking men. Most responses were positive. Obama won the county by about 600 votes, which is pretty good for this county.

It was below zero and windy that day, and 2½ hours of that froze us all, but hey, it beats doing doors or calling people who are sick of calls, in my opinion.
