Haiti is my heart. I first traveled there in 2001. I always say that I flew in one person and flew out another person. It changed me on a deeply visceral level. After that initial trip, I went back as often as I could. Being a teacher, I was fortuitous enough to have summer breaks and long holiday vacation. So in those times, I went to Haiti. I didn’t go to help poor, suffering Haitians.

I am ecstatic that NC turned blue!!! I just wanted to point out that even though critics of the 50 state strategy said NC was impossible, it certainly wasn't! Yet I've heard some sentiment that SC is hopeless. Looking at the county by county breakdown of the Presidential election, I disagree.

Being a U.S. Peace Corps Volunteer (PCV) in Tonga has its challenges. But by far, the hardest part of being a PCV right now is the fact that I am not on the ground, spending every waking moment canvassing, making phone calls, and doing every thing I can to GOTV. Despite my geographic location, I have ate, slept, and breathed this election. My absentee ballot was mailed weeks ago, and now, I am sitting at my computer lamenting the long lines at the polls.
