Crowds Can't Get Enough Kerry Stickers on Opening Night at Millenium Park

Kerry Volunteers were doing a Land-Office Business just getting a sticker to everyone who wanted one at the opening night of Millenium Park on Friday, July 16.

People waited in line to snap up the familiar blue Lapel Stickers. Mothers and fathers would request them not only for themselves but for all their children. Old people, young people, people of all races and backgrounds eagarly snapped the things up. We could hardly peel them off quickly enough!

This was one of the biggest events of the season. The popularity of the symbol -- a simple sticker -- was a great illustration (as if we needed one) of how greatly the people of this city and state identify with the campaign to elect John Kerry president of the United States. It was a wonderful event.
