The Obama Campaign

Well, that was some two weeks.  The Obama campaign is over – ending in victory, of course – and I’m back to Ireland today. (…well, it was “today” when I started writing this last Sunday.) The Obama campaign was, overall, a masterclass in grassroots activism.  The sheer numbers of people contributing to the campaign – [...]

Virginia – Day 14

Well, it’s all come to an end.  There’s a more detailed post in the works about the Obama campaign and my experiences, but that’ll take a couple of days to complete. From all-you-can-eat sushi to getting thrown out of a restaurant, I’ve had a really great time here, mainly thanks to the great people I [...]

Victory

Virginia called just seconds before the election as a whole.  It’s been some trip. All my American friends are already unsewing the Canadian flags from their luggage.

Stage Door Café Alexandria – Never Fucking Go There

The Stage Door Café in Alexandria is not a good place to go.  In fact, it’s a fucking bad place to go if you’re a Democrat.  A bunch of us from the Obama campaign were in there and got kicked out.  We were paying customers (although the service was as shite as I’ve ever experienced [...]

Stage Door Café, Alexandria – Don’t Eat There

I was thrown out of this place for being a Democrat.  On election day.  And my party and I were the only paying customers in the place!  Apparently wearing an Obama sweatshirt is not permitted. Service was awful too – we waited for more than thirty minutes for a cup of coffee, and one of our party had [...]

Virginia Day 11 – Escape to Victory

Greetings from the Data Cave in the Obama for America Alexandria, VA, Field Office. Polls have been open in Virginia for just over four hours now, and voting has been brisk, although there haven’t been the extraordinary queues seen last time.  This has a lot to do with the very strong early voting showing – [...]

Virginia – Day 9

Huge numbers out for Obama in Alexandria today. Our phone banks are running at full capacity, as are the canvassing teams. There’s a great buzz about the place, which the Virginia motivational video I mentioned earlier has only heightened. There’s even artwork going on: And the phone banks are going at full steam – running [...]

Virginia – Day 8 (and a bit of 9)

Very hectic.  All the stops are being pulled out on the ground here in Alexandria.  Unlike the Florida McCain office that FiveThirtyEight (the bible on polls, by the way), photographed tonight, I can assure you, having just left it, that the Obama Field Office in Alexandria, VA, is still working.  That’s 1am local time.  There [...]

Virginia – Day 5

Writing this while sitting in the Obama Field Office in Alexandria, VA, doing some data entry from last night’s phone banking (just waiting for a fresh set of data).  Conor & Gavin are off to Virginia Beach to the Obama rally – try doing some real work, lads! Clocked up another 164 Calls for Victory [...]
