NO on Prop 8

Early Tuesday i went to the Democratic HQ to campaign against Prop8. I volunteereed to be one of the captains and man my polling place for the entire day (10hours). We approached voters yet kept the 100ft mark from the polling office. We talked to some friendly folks and not so friendly yes folks. The issue is constitutional rights and discrimination based on sexual orientation. My neighbor Penny and her daugher was there with me for part of the day, along with two other volunteers, Paula and Jen. We spent the entire day debating about the issue at hand. The principal of the elementary school met us to see that we were not harrassing the voters that came into the office. We even brought coffee and donuts for the poll workers.
