Early Voting: Does the Obama Campaign ever bring people directly from a rally to vote?

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

Seems like it would be a good tactic in states like OH take advantage of President Obama's ability to draw big crowds.

Was this done in 2008?

3. I Went To Obama's Rally At The Ohio Statehouse On Nov. 2, 2008

One of the things he did during the rally was to point out to the crowd that just down the street was a polling station where people could go vote early, and he encouraged everyone there to go do it. So yes, he's on top of this.

By the way, fellow Ohioans, early voting in Ohio starts next week (I think). I've already requested my ballot, but everyone else should do so as well. If you wait until Election Day, you open yourself up to the possibility of being challenged by the Teabagger "poll watchers," of having to wait in line, or of being disenfranchised in any number of different ways. Don't screw around with it. Get your early voting ballot by mail and send it in. You avoid all that nonsense AND help create a paper trail. There's no reason NOT to do it.

4. I don't know, but volunteers have come to my house and signed my wife and I up for mail ballots...

...since early voting hasn't started yet (but will soon). I'm sure they've hit our entire city by now. Our votes will probably be in before the debates.
