I’ve been invited to attend a Tim Walz rally tonight, and I have no idea what to expect. Share your stories and get me pumped up to see our next VP!

Update: Everybody was right, lots of standing and clapping, but what I really didn’t expect was the sense of family I felt with all these strangers around me. We’d bump into each other, and laugh it off, one guy was telling me about how his son was thinking about going to the college that I work at (I was still wearing my shirt from work), and we all just knew that we were working together to make great things happen. I’ll probably skip the next one, but it was a great experience. I’m glad I went, and would recommend going to one if you have a chance, and a candidate you believe in.

    I went to one for a politician who was running in his party’s primary to be the leader of the party. It was a relatively chill event in a local bar. This politician is somewhat famously a former member of a band, so the rally was mostly a live music event of him playing old labour movement/folk songs like 16 ton, interspersed with talking points.
