Wankette 4

If you are personally canvassing door-to-door within two weeks of the election and three of ten voters both recognize you and give you positive feedback, you will probably win.

If more than 40 percent of the likely voters have a favorable impression on the incumbent six months before an election, then he or she is probably unbeatable.

When you are canvassing door-to-door you can optimize your “time per voter” by spending no more than twenty to thirty seconds with each person you meet. Most people will decide whether they like you within that time and most will want to get back to whatever they’re doing when you interrupted them. You should, however, take time to discuss issues with the interested persons.
