So, what do you think —
Mostly, I think what I always think less than two weeks out from an election. Hoffman needs to get his voters to the polls. He really needs to play for McHugh’s base. If he can get 2 out of 3 of the McHugh voters, and they show up in the same proportions as last year, it is pretty sure that he is in.

I don’t know what the others have for ground game, but Hoffman has a good ground game, and I am getting emails from other organizations in upstate NY saying they are volunteering for him. I think he has a bigger ground presence than the others. Within the district, he started with 5 locations of his own business, and I think as many as 13 locations for businesses in his family. He has roots there, and local support in addition to all of the donations from around the country.

Some of the grass roots groups in or within driving distance of this district are pitching in. This includes some TEA party and 9-12 groups, as well as some other internet based conservative grass roots organizers.


From the desk of
cc2k:
I support Doug Hoffman for Congress (PayPal).

Please, spread the word about this important election on November 3, 2009 in New York’s 23rd congressional district.

I received the same one. At the end, where it starts “No, I prefer to...”, I marked out the rest and wrote above it, “to elect actual conservatives”.
