Wish I could wear one of my blue Gillum or Nelson shirts, but we aren't allowed. I don't see a lot of people wearing all blue, or many minorities at the precinct where I'm at, but it's not my usual voting place so maybe it's more Republican or it could be people just haven't gotten the message to wear blue? Or maybe the Dems will come out later?

further than staff and volunteers? I didn't push this at all when making GOTV calls & knocking on doors, maybe I should have but spent my time talking about the importance of voting for Democrats and didn't think to mention this to regular voters.

Passed a man coming out who was wearing a red jacket and red hat (not a MAGA hat, local university team hat).

I would say more then 1/2 of the people at my polling place are wearing red. Minorities women etc. Very few blue shirts I'd say less then 5%. But I am in a college town where the team colors are red so a lot of people have a lot of red in their wardrobe. So don't take someone as wearing red on election day as a automatic Republican .

along with blue jeans. I already voted, so I'm awaiting phone calls to drive voters to the polls.
