Cornwall campaign: working hard to win votes, or hardly working?

I find this hilarious:

What’s amusing to me about that Facebook post from Cedric Cornwall’s judicial campaign is the fact that whomever posted it seems to think that knocking on hundreds of doors in a county of nearly a million people and 417,411 housing units is somehow indicative of how hard the campaign has worked to earn votes.

My takeaway from that Facebook post is that the Cornwall campaign hasn’t really made much of an effort to engage voters to earn their votes. After all, a small group of volunteers could knock on hundreds of doors in a weekend, or an individual candidate could knock on hundreds of doors in a couple of weekends (trust me, I know from first-hand experience). Instead of trying to connect with voters by knocking on their doors, the Cornwall campaign seems to have chosen to rely on a negative mailer to attack Cornwall’s opponent in a desperate attempt to sway voters, and that’s a damn shame.

If Cedric Cornwall thinks knocking on a few hundred doors in the many months since he first announced his candidacy is any indication of how hard he’ll work if elected, then he doesn’t deserve the seat he’s running for, because Milwaukee County deserves judges who’ll work hard while they sit on the bench.
