July 28, 2012--It is a Saturday
morning with 101 days to go until November 6, Election Day.
Robert Mack, Mount Vernon precinct team leader for the Obama campaign
(center in white tee shirt), greets volunteers arriving at a home in
the Del Ray section of Alexandria, VA for a "nationwide day of action"
as part of the campaign's "It Takes One" initiative. Alexandria
is a solid Democratic voting area, but it has a high population
turnover, about 45% every five years, or more than twice the national
average. Voters may be ineligible if they have moved since they
last voted. |
