I got one flier of his in my door. I also got one of Chisholm's; a friend one street over says he got 4 from Chisholm.

I stood out at my polling place (acros the street from Ciampa Manor) and there were several of us for Rebekah, one guy for Chisholm, and several for Joe. From what I could see of the United Methodist Church polling place it was the same. Nobody for Adams, Scirocco or Bremer.

I got Rebekah's flyer only because I was the one handing them out in my building. I got one flyer from Chisholm, which didn't say much. I never got anything from Adams.

I stood at my polling place, the Dilboy Post VFW, from 7 to 9 am. Pretty much the same as what you reported, except there were two people for Chisholm.
