Democrats At The Door

By Baxter

We cats have lived in Upstate New York for less than a year, but we've already been canvassed for the 2018 Congressional midterms four times. And the Democratic primary isn't until late June!

We've been door-knocked by a candidate himself — a Bernie Bro (probably not our first choice, but obviously we'll vote for him if he gets the Democratic nomination). The others were volunteers, canvassing for other candidates in the race. One was in his nineties. The other was 16.

All of them were motivated by something we hold dear to our little feline hearts: getting our Republican Congresswoman — who votes with Trump and Ryan practically down the line but who tries to skate by as a so-called "moderate" — the hell out of office.

Of course, it's easier to reach voters when they register by party. But based on all the activity we've seen so far, it seems a sure-fire thing: Democrats are organizing, and we're seeing the azure-tinged tip of the coming wave. That makes us PURR.
