Just to "actualize" things a little, I took a picture of the petition drive a couple of weeks ago on 58th Avenue (Ralston Rd) during a slight lull in traffic. There was a group of anti-pro-recall (
) folks there, too, ringing cowbells and whatnot. They're the ones wih the orange signs.
I was trying to capture a clear pic of the white and black flag, which showed one of those
modern sporting rifles which are in common use, but the wind didn't allow it during that break in traffic.
While I was at their office, I picked up a bunch of RecallHudakToo literature to drop off at my range. OK, so I walked into the range and asked the manager if I could leave some off on the tables in the waiting area, and he said "You bet!" with some considerable enthusiasm.
But nobody had apparently done that before. I went back and left off some more the next week and chatted with some of the folks waiting for firing points. One said he had already signed the petition, but stoopit me, I forgot to point out that if he was one of those who had signed the
first petition, this was a new drive, and he'd have to sign a new one. :dopeslap: :banghead:
One thing I forgot to ask while I was at the recall office was if any special effort was made to individually contact the registered Libertarians. These are the folks whose votes were drawn away from the more desireable candidate when she was elected.
Don't get me wrong, I can't blame anyone for voting their conscience, but in this case it is generally agreed that this threw the election her way. Having them sign the petition and vote for her recall is an excellent way to "correct" the election of Ms. Hudak last time around.
Anyhow, sorry for the lousy pic, but between waiting for traffic to clear and the wind to lift that "modern sporting rifle which is in common use" flag right, that was the best I could do. I hollered at them to wave at me from across the four-lane street, but not too many heard me.
