X-Posted in RI
Very exciting weekend for us here in RI. We don't usually get much attention, nevermind a campaign office!!
I am working most of the weekend so I will miss some of the good stuff, but if there is anyone local, we are at 500 Broad St, Providence and will be canvassing all weekend (as well as every day until the 26th!)
Go Rhody!

But there is always that recency bias if New York doesn't go well that may sway some.
So we have some work to do here. Thanks!

Note to people who are unfamiliar with Rhode Island: RI is like a small town. Even when you meet new people, you can talk for a few minutes and find out you have people in common. You can name a landmark such as "The red bridge " and someone from any part of the state knows exactly what you're talking about. Word-of-mouth is huge here, which can only help Bernie. RI also has more Catholics per capita than any other state, and I think the Vatican visit works in his favor as well.
