I had been looking to volunteer for Joe Sestak for a while and a few days ago I finally got the call. I signed up (figuratively, since it was done over the phone) to help canvas for him tomorrow starting at 10 AM. I've never done anything like this before so I'm a bit nervous. I do think I could do a fair job of talking up Joe vs Curt but the whole door-to-door thing has always seemed weird to me. Are we just going to visit known Democrats or everyone in an area? And what are will it be? How do I dress (it is susposed to be quite nice weather wise atleast)? What's the best approach for possitive results? Who will I end up paired with? Lots of questions... (obviously I'm not looking to answers for all of them here at Dailykos - will just have to find out tomorrow)
If anyone with canvasing experience, especially in my corner of PA, wants to share their stories and advice here I'd welcome them.
