Night postering... - 08-09-2006 08:33:28 - Only logged activists can post a comment, please sign in or register here
We met our Social Democratic contacts last night...part of the Stockholm county organization. There was about 15 workers in the offices plus another half dozen from Denmark. Most it seems are political students, displaying great maturity, commitment and friendliness.
The resouces at the disposal of the Social Democrats here is far greater than anything we have at home. Every student official has an office, they has all the facilities they need to mount campaigns and have hire a number of vans for campaign activities.
Interesting that they often do tours of schools, not only for first time voters, but future voters. Something we fail to do at home.
After a nice intro to all the members last night and welcome, we spent a hour late last night postering around the area of Solna. The poster was of a 25yr old female candidate! Again, would be rarely seen at home unfortunately! It was good fun, my first ever postering I was embarrassed to admit!! Afterward, the Irish headed for the mandatory drinks in the city center. The cocktails were nice, and Swedish women even nicer...
Up early this morning, sun is out, have full day ahead...
