Amen to that. In what you might call "local" elections (city, county, local
school board, etc.) the conventional wisdom is that 30% of the voters know
you and would vote for you if you were the devil incarnate. 30% of the
voters know you and wouldn't vote for you if you were the second coming of
Christ.

The other 40% haven't a CLUE and vote based on whose name they heard the
most (or the last), whether or not you have a nice smile, or if you go to
their church. THOSE are the ducks that you go hunting.

Successful campaigning is all about identifying the 4th group, and
getting them to vote for your candidate.
