Campaigning for the Democrats in Florida has been both a privilege and an eye-opener. It feels as if history is about to be made, and the most common comment we hear is it's time to take our country back!
It has though been tough - early starts and late nights - and Chris is right, his navigation is dismal. As many of you will know, I have been working in Europe a lot recently, and what I have realised that whatever country you are in, everyone has more in common than the differences that people often concentrate on.
As Joe Biden said today, the winner of this election needs to bring America together both on a national and international stage. Canvassing here is actually much like the UK (including its organisation!) but what I do respect is people's interest in politics, which we can learn a lesson from in the UK.
I would like to say thank you to all the Americans that have thanked us for coming to help the Democrats in the election. But as the song goes, 'The times, they are a-changing'.
