How to REALLY avoid being locked out of DU

[johncoby2]

If you are concerned about being locked out of DU on election day, here is what you can do:

Put down your laptop
Put on your shoes
Go walk for your favorite candidate

If you are jacking around on DU on election day, you are not helping.

1. Bingo!

GOTV, and...

NGU.

2. Right, another lecture. We really, really needed another lecture. n/t

[ClassWarrior]

6. Yeah, it's not like it's anything important...

:eyes:

NGU.

14. And you should quit smoking and drop 25 pounds while you're at it!

Oh, wait, were we talking about the future of democracy and not your own ass? Sorry....

18. I know you don't care, but I'll add you to my list. Goodbye.

21. done that already

We are currently scheduled to knock on 500 doors each by Tuesday.
We have knocked on over 20,000 already. (Lost count already)

We are all lean and fit now!

3. Amen! n/t

4. Unless you're John McCain

then you can jack off as much as you like as per usual.

I'm not John McCain and I approve this message.

5. After the polls are closed will you still be walking?

7. My plans - canvass until the polls close, then curl up with DU!

8. You could've been making calls instead of posting this.

You are calling out fellow DUers. You are not helping either.

9. .

10. agreed. what nonsense.

a blanket condemnation of anyone worried about being locked out of DU on election day because they are not out walking for their candidate -- jeez.

Edit to add: The people who 'jack around' here on DU HAVE helped and are capable of helping by being right here on DU.. do you not realize how helpful this site is and how crap it would be if on election day, no one was here as you suggest? Your post is wrong in so many ways.

2nd Quick Edit to add: I agree with your basic purpose, but not the way you presented it, that's all.

11. Today's not Election Day.

Your comment reminds me of those Obama supporters I've called for GOTV who say, "I don't knowwwww... I might have other plans that dayyyy..."

:eyes:

NGU.

12. The peak time will be after the the polls have closed

for people on the east coast, at least - and even those on the west coast won't have much time left to do anything for the result. There's nothing unproductive about being on DU then.

13. AFTER the polls close is what is being discussed. That's the peak time.

15. Well, I'm spending 5:30AM to 10PM working that day...

at the poll. Maybe even longer. When I get home, the last thing I give a shit about is ANY opinion-- left, right, or middle-- about what happened that day.

I do care who won, of course, but I am blessed with the innate patience to wait until I wake up the next day to find out.

[MiniMe]

16. I'm not worried during the day, it's after 11 that worries me

:hi:

[Dhalgren]

17. DU is the last place I'd want to be on election day...

19. There will still be a few disabled like me holding down the fort n/t

[gollygee]

20. I'm having a difficult pregnancy and I have a little kid to take care of

I'll stand in line to vote if it kills me, but my day of "helping" will be done at that point.

But thanks for your thoughts.
