There were so many calls flying in from all over the country. It was a beautiful site to behold...

3. I made calls for Obama at a phone bank in 2012

I think the phone banks made a difference

I have been hoping that whoever wins the Dem primary will have the kind of grass roots organization that Obama had (the people who made calls with me were just ordinary people)

Everybody needs to be setting aside a little bit of time to make some calls tomorrow if we really want this.

11. I got 3 calls Friday from Bernie phonebankers. Their excitement was contagious.

It was a pleasure to talk to them. Two had heard about Tim Canova running against DWS, but the other one was so happy he wrote down the website. He was heading there to make a donation.

I have never had such inspiring phone calls.

but just not tech savvy enough to understand how the dialing pop up settings worked. I hope to be able to phone bank from an office with land lines and on site support.

Will be hooking up with Bernie volunteers Saturday morning a few blocks from my house. Maybe there will be a local office close by to work from for the next set of primaries.

Thanks for posting today's work results. I hope it made just enough difference for tomorrow's results.
