asking me to join up. I simply can't, I have a farm with animals I cannot leave. I am hoping they will text me for phone banking, I asked them to anyway. Thank you all for your work. Canvassing can be fun but also really tiring.

We've joined a group doing this on Saturdays in important sections of the Pittsburgh MSA.

It's about the most rewarding way of seeing the America you have.

So, how did it go? Does the campaign seem to have good voter lists? What was your response rate? Were you primarily targeting likely caucus goers or were you going to all voters? Any good stories?

Any feedback for us? Does Iowa love Bernie as much as we do?

Thank you for all you do!

PEACE

......we talked to a lot of people on both sides; supporters for both Bernie and Hillary. I did get a few people to sign 'commit to caucus' cards for Bernie Sanders. We're at least making people aware that Bernie is in the race.

Remember, we've still got most of November, then December and January left. The KC group will go to Iowa in December and at least once in January, just before the caucuses.
