A Colin Van Ostern door-knocker came to the house today. Ayotte had someone up here three weeks ago. Post-FITN, that has been it, so far.
As I’ve said previously, campaign people rarely visit us, for whatever reason.
Mailers? Only four — Van Ostern, an anti-Trump from PPNNE, local Dem Reps/Senate, and Save the Children for Van Ostern. This is a bit of a surprise since we’re super-voters — we vote in every election, including primaries, and have for 13 years in New Hampshire (I remember just about every vote I’ve cast since 1984, in three different states…).
At the same time, it means these primary races are lean and mean — and completely wide open, too. A nice change from the Jeb! bombardment of mailers last year.
I used to speak to all of them but I don’t talk to them much any longer. Especially after getting into a discussion with a Hillary Clinton campaign worker from Massachusetts who believed he had a right to vote in the New Hampshire primary even though he lived in Massachusetts. Vote fraud exists. Period. I know, I’ve seen it with my own eyes.
I shoo campaign people away now. If they push back, I explain that I work in the media and can’t talk to them about anything. That usually gets them to leave.
The Van Ostern doorknocker was fine; I said, “We’re all set, thanks,” and he kept saying, “I just want to make sure you know there is an election.”
“Yup, we do, I have to get back to work, thanks.”
He said it three times. Poor old guy. LOL
