Grassroots-organized Honk & Waves are springing up all over Vermont - Burlington, Bennington, Brattleboro, Springfield, St. Albans, Montpelier and White River Junction to name just a few. At our White River honk & wave on Friday, I was expecting maybe 3 or 4 volunteers, and 9 showed up! We had two giant 4 foot by 6 foot signs and lots of smaller ones. We got so many honks we lost count. Several people stopped and rolled down their windows. "This will be the second time in my life I've voted for a Democrat," said a man with graying hair. "I'm making phone calls to Ohio!" yelled a woman as she drove by. A couple who live just up the street pulled over and asked for a yard sign. This is grassroots politics at its best.Need to borrow signs for your local Honk & Wave? Shoot me an email: jamie@nordicskater.com
Let's March 4th Together!
