However, I am grateful for the work people are putting in. I saw three or four petition gatherers outside my caucus on Tuesday.
Where are the details about why the petitions were invalidated? I know most notaries were not informed about a law change and so took down an erroneous form of identification ("A person known to me.")
Lots of worries about legal tricks.
Kevin,
You and I have discussed this subject in the past, and I hope we can continue the discussion, because I feel like you’re “almost there”.
Here’s a blog post which explains in detail why it doesn’t matter whether Personhood wins this year or not — it IS the best strategy to change hearts and minds, and the best venue to reach the public with these arguments.

Hope you’ll consider it and join the bandwagon — this is a Christian, Biblical movement, whereas in the past pro-lifers have been told to “not mention God”, but the results (and the volume of people it reaches) are not bound only by active Christians. Everyone can see the moral component here, and they see it even more clearly when it’s compared to slavery, which is an apt analogy.
