Even with our best efforts to motivate our folks, it was difficult to get people out to vote.

The campaigns have done of a lot of the intensive grass-roots work and electronic media — radio and TV advertising. They're clearly generating more interest than we had two years ago, and I think that'll carry through to election day.

The final week of early voting is always the heaviest, and the hotter the race, the heavier the turnout in the last few days.
