Today's Count - Tue Oct 19 (Day 1)
Okay, exactly 24 hours after I sent out my first notice, we have 45 new voters donning the clothespin, for a total of 46. These people, I know, tend to be well connected (I myself am not well connected, but I am connected to people who are VERY well connected). The network effect suggests that every Progressive in Oklahoma is connected to every other Progressive in Oklahoma in a few short hops. If those who are going to vote for Carson because of national priorities will publicly don the clothespin, I will amass a list of names that exceeds the electorate of Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Missouri in about, um, five days. Okay, maybe that's a little overambitious.
But if you are going to hold your nose, stand up and be counted! I am sure the total will exceed Carson's inevitable margin of victory, if we can just collect the numbers.
Also, BTW, do not be concerned about offending the Carsonites by copying them with your intention. They are, I am sure, truly hoping for the success of this project, as they had been taking our votes for granted, and must have begun to realize that this was a strategic error. We're going to DELIVER this election to them, but we are not going to GIVE it to them.
HOLD YOUR NOSE AND BE COUNTED!
I think I may drop some clothespins by their office as well.
