Election Saturation in the 39th
While Joy and I were out in Park Slope (between escourting our son to his first day of after shool and picking up palm cards from the Central Brooklyn Independent Democrats to inflict on voters tomorrow) we ran into our friend and candidate Josh Skaller. As we chatted, we noticed someone knocking on doors and wondered which candidate they were canvassing for. We figured out it wasn't a candidate's campaign but Planned Parenthood canvassing for recurring donors.
We realized their timing was way off since, with primary day tomorrow, they would be facing neighborhoods already saturated by canvassers. We decided to go talk with them and let them know not to feel too put off by the reception they had gotten. Sure enough, they told us that the guy they had talked to had already had 5 campaigns knock on his door and was NOT in the mood for talking. As we chatted with the Planned Parenthood canvassers, I noticed the guy they had just talked to coming back to the door...on which he hung the following sign:
