My wife and two of our friends made the 3 hour drive to Erie, Pa. and right now are at the Trump rally at the local airport. I'll post more later when she gets home. She was really excited.

Sight unseen, it sounds like you married well!

Great, she will be elated when she gets home to tell you how it went.
Hope he wins PA.
I think Pa is in the top 5 of number of gun owners in a state. LOTS OF THOSE GUN OWNERS did not vote last time.

She took this photo. She was able to get pretty close! She got home at 3 a.m. and I was up and out the door for work at 6, so I haven't had time to catch up with her.

Furthermore, I believe something like 500,000 hunters just in the state of PA don't vote. That's an incredible statistic.

And that's awesome, chbibc. Great pic!

That is insane. I hope they’ve been paying attention the last year.

I'll have you know she is a very patient woman.

Marrying her was the best thing I've ever done. It will be 30 years for us next month.

The President was in Prescott, AZ for a rally on Monday, October 19th. We would have been there had we known. There were reportedly 15,000 people crammed into the little community airport. I think he had to arrive by helicopter since the airport isn't built for big planes.

There were people who drove to Prescott from out of state to witness history.

According to Hunt The Vote, 50% of hunters don't vote. Yeah, that's crazy. I hope they are out there voting this year.

Back when I lived in NY ( busted a move for free America 4 years ago) our vehemently anti gun governor was up for re-election. Just combining numbers of pistol permit holders and people with hunting licenses (understanding there is a bunch of overlap there) that number would be higher than all people who voted in the election!
Sadly many fudds do not get that after they come after the pistol people and “ assault weapons” those “sporting shotguns are next.

Great photo! She was damn close! That's awesome! I'm sure a night she'll never forget! And when he kicks ass on Nov 3, it'll be all the sweeter!

When Obama won his second term I lost a couple buddies. They were in the 30's and most of their lives were involved in pro sports. Watching and gambling. Of course fantasy football and college hoops bracket boards was the be all end all for them. We were out having a couple beers one night and I told them if they spent half the time researching who they vote for as who they are going pick for wide receiver in the third round of their fantasy league we wouldn't be in this mess.

They all have guns mostly hunting but gun owners none the less. Two of them said don't bitch at me I didn't even vote! We don't see much of each other anymore. They've reached out to me a couple times but I'm always busy.

They say Erie is a bellwether for the state....I hope that's the case this year.

I am from Erie Co. so is my ex-wife, she still lives there with my adult sons.

In 2016 I sent her a text asking her to thank her friends, she is a adjunct prof in the social sciences , for the Trump victory.

She blocked my number for 3 months

WINNING!
