| The teens are helping Romney get out the vote in Florida |
The teens are doing Get Out The Vote door-to-door canvassing in northeast Florida, since Georgia is solidly in Mitt Romney's camp.
Local news did a video story, which you can watch here.
From First Coast News (Florida): "Two dozen young black Republicans from South Georgia are making the
trip to Jacksonville to promote their beliefs in a battleground state. The teens are part of the Gold Isle Minority Republican caucus and
are crossing the state line for a lesson in civics and politics by
working to get out the Republican message. They will work in and around the San Marco business district. 'I personally believe in a hand up, not a hand out,' said 17 year-old
Anntwan Jones, who is one of the teens making the trip. 'I believe you
have to work for everything you need, whatever you want.'"
More: "Ken Adkins organized the political trip that he said had not been without challenges. 'We've had some notes left on our door. I received some calls, I've been told not to do it,' said Atkins."
