So Long New Hampshire.






Well.... the trip is pretty much over. I have to say I really liked it up here..... working, meeting interesting people, the beautiful [cold] weather.....  


Today we arrived at the office fairly early and made some phone calls reminding people to vote and such. Later George and I with some other random volunteers went canvassing in a town called Exeter. Interesting place. I didn't see the "downtown" area but I thought the surrounding neighborhoods were beautiful. And the weather was absolutely perfect. About 50 degrees!

Afterwards, back to the phones. Ridiculousness there. We were [pretty much] made to call people up until 7:30 pm. Yeah.... we were mad. the people being called were mad. it was just not a fun situation. 
















Later was the primary party. After only 10% of the ballots were called in, Fox News claimed McCain the winner. Not the outcome anyone there wanted but it wasn't horrible either. Romney ended up with 32% of the votes and 4 delegates while McCain received 37% of the votes and 7 delegates.

So now we're on our way back home to Florida. The end of one short race, on to another!
