The Longest Day of My Life


Trying to organize the 40 delegates from our precinct.

We spent 8 hours on the floor of Hulcy Middle School today. The 23rd Senatorial District Democratic Convention here in Dallas was a mind blowing clusterfuck. In case you don't believe me, read all these articles about it. Our experience looks very typical of what happened in most other Dallas Obama strongholds. Basically the Clinton campaign challenged as many precincts as possible, thereby disenfranchising delgates by forcing them to wait for HOURS on the floor of jr. high. We were there for a total of 12 hours. 8am to 8pm. It was horrible, but it was well worth it, because I believe in Barack Obama that much. What a way to spend a Saturday. Here are some pictures of it.


I slept on and off during most of it.

After 8 hours, they finally gave us our credentials.


Me finally out on the convention floor with the rest of the delegates, our precinct sitting behind me.


We strategize how to fuck the Clinton supporters out of a delegate or alternate. We did.
