Volunteers Crucial in Maine Get Out the Vote Effort for Gay Marriage

Long before I met the sleepyhead who's now my wife, her college pal Stacy McDaniel would arrive unannounced on her doorstep every Sunday morning. Armed with a loaf of bread and an irresistible laugh, he would jolly Joyce into driving with him to a nearby lake. Together, they would feed the ducks of Athens, Ga. Despite her many fine qualities, Joyce would have never laid eyes on those ducks if Stacy hadn't been determined to get her up and out. Good intentions weren't enough - she needed a friendly nudge. That's exactly what Stacy now intends to give Maine's progressive voters. Stacy and 1,000 other volunteers, most from in state, have set their hearts on getting those voters up, out and to the ballot box - or mailbox for early voters - to defeat the anti-gay measure known as Question 1.
