Wow. We did it!!!!
The GOTV operation was just incredible. We were getting people out to the polls (picking them up at their home and driving them to their polling place) to vote at 8:55pm.
We picked up a 79 year old woman from Trinidad who had bad knees and lived on the 6th floor of a run down city housing complex at 8:30.
Just before she went into the polling booth she asked the driver (actually 2 vols helped get her to the polls) if she would be beaten if she voted for the wrong person.
The vols assured her that she could vote for whoever she wanted.
Relieved, she slowly entered the polling booth and pulled the levers for her candidates.
What a night!!!
There's too much more to recount without a little sleep and some time for the tequila to wear off.
Take a look at John's victory speech (he SINGS it) ...
