What it is really like to work on a political campaign

You may have noticed I've gone quiet around here for the last couple of days. Been busy. We're expanding from about 35 working staff to nearly 60 in Reno over this coming weekend. All those people need somewhere to live; I've been working on it.

Meanwhile, our loyal existing staff get a long weekend off. (I even get some hours off!) The canvassers have knocked on tens of thousands of doors in Washoe County and identified thousands of supporters while walking in 90 degree heat. They deserve a break.

So this morning we set up a spread. Then off they went to knock on more doors before going home tomorrow for the weekend.
