Weekend America Voices

Organizing for Election Day
There are 24 days until the election, and all eyes are on the so-called "battleground" states. Are you feeling left out? Well, most of us are. The majority of Americans do not live in swing states. But chances are, you've got one nearby. And what neighbor isn't at least tempted to lean over the fence with a little friendly advice? Volunteers working for both tickets are crossing state lines to build support for their candidates and tilt the scale by Election Day.
