I spent the weekend canvassing in Pittsburgh. I was part of an LGBT posse from NYC. We drove (a long way). Our charge was twofold. First, we would canvass in a very poor African American neighborhood.  Pro-Obama but historically very low turnout. I guess you have to feel like you matter before you can believe that your vote matters. After an afternoon of canvassing, we would then head to an event at local gay club. We understood that the Pittsburgh LGBT community had been fiercely behind Hillary and that our work there would be about persuasion.
