Today was the first time I canvassed for Francesca Hong.

Her platform and the things she is fighting for inspired me to get off my butt and knock doors, and I just wanted to share my experience for the benefit of anyone who might be thinking of taking that next step.

Almost everyone I talked to was enthusiastic about her platform when I explained it, especially a soon-to-be grandmother who was very hopeful about Fran's free childcare plan. While I didn't wrangle up any new volunteers on this first showing, some people who said they'd never voted in a primary before are now commmitted to Fran and a few more yard signs are going out to them.

Got hit by some downpours so I plan on finishing the list tomorrow during better weather, but the response so far has been very encouraging. I've never volunteered for a primary candidate like this, but I feel glad that I did and I'm hopeful tomorrow I can bring more people onboard.

I know there are a lot of Hong supporters on this subreddit and I encourage you to volunteer if you are able. It feels good to talk with your neighbors and get the message out about a candidate who will fight for us and make a better Wisconsin for working class folks.

We can make better happen! Hong for governor!
