  •  Dallas County, Texas (none / 0)

    Here in Dallas, the local Party HQ is giving away Kerry Gear, but requesting a donation for it, then using the proceeds to buy more Kerry Gear, etc., (the requested donation is typically twice the cost, so it also funds giveaways to those who don't contribute). It's been amazing the number of people who have literally driven 30 miles just to pick up a bumper sticker or two, then given $25 or $100 to the local party while they're at it! We've run through literally thousands of bumper stickers (once again, we're out and waiting for more to come in) over the past two months. Our first shipment of yard signs is due this weekend, and already nearly half are spoken for (the rule here used to be 60 days ahead on yard signs, but we got caught when the rules changed locally last month).

    We're also requesting in a nice way, that anybody who gets a Kerry/Edwards sign also put up a sign either for a local candidate or a "Vote Democratic" sign, and almost everybody takes at least one additional sign.
