Some of us have received an email from HQ asking us for 30 second videos describing our funniest canvassing story. It included links to some ‘Here is one I made earlier’ videos and this is our favourite so far:

You only need a mobile phone so I’m sure you can do better. If you have a story to tell, send your videos to Al Ghaff on [email protected].

Is it just me, but what did the lady say?

The best, or at least funniest, response I ever got was in 2010.

Rugby had Council Elections on the same day as the GE. In the ward I was canvassing we were concentrating on defending the council seat as there was no chance in the GE.

I was canvassing a lady I had spoken to many times before, extolling the merits of our candidate, who was new.

Having gone through the council bit and she confirmed she would be voting for us I asked, “And what about the general?

To which the reply was, “I don’t know how he votes.”
