[Peace-discuss] [sf-core] Can I Count On You?

[Rohn Koester]

As a follow up, I might add that I donated a month's worth of wages and
about a hundred hours of service to Carol's campaign. I've supported what
she's done so  far -- a spectacular start, save for her non-vote on this
issue -- and will likely support her again in 2016.
