Super Tuesday

When I was 18 I was involved in the "get-out-the-vote campaign for JFK. It was my first election and I was too young to vote. I went door to door asking people if they needed a ride to the polls or a baby sitter, etc. My route happened to be the appartment complexes near Los Angeles County Hospital that housed the nurses and doctors for the hospital. I woke up many of these night-shifters. Most were not happy. I've always wondered if it influenced their vote.
