Foreground at right, that’s Fauntleroy resident Chris Porter, who was an Obama delegate to the Democratic National Convention (here’s his first-person report published on WSB afterward) – we found him with other signwavers on the Fauntleroy overpass about half an hour ago. All Democrats, except for two Lakeside School students who came with a get-out-the-vote sign; we talked to them on video – (added later) here’s the clip (tough to do a coherent interview over a near-freeway):
And here’s a video clip of Chris and company – most notable for the sound of traffic, and honking, going by:
By the way, the view looking east from the overpass:
And on the way to the overpass (added later), just one lone signwaver at 35th/Fauntleroy – but our video view, as we pass, shows a couple other campaign sights:
