I volunteered for Michelle Obama rally at UNM in Sep. She arrived at least an hour later than expected. Tardiness was a typical practice in these rallies so I was expecting Michele to be late too and she didn't disappoint me. People waited in the line for hours but volunteers were there much longer. We would arrive 4-5 hours ahead of schedule for briefing by staff, security check and getting our assignments. Michele was coming from Santa Fe, where she held a roundtable with New Mexico military families. Here, she spoke of the importance of women and of registering people to vote before nearly 2,000 women at the Student Union Building at the University of New Mexico. Of course, a lot of young male students stood in line hoping to get in and at the end they were all allowed to attend. Once again it was all worth it. Michele was incredible. I only have a few pictures.
