Kimberly has been a huge proponent of registering new voters in Guilford County. She has set up tables on Saturdays around town via the Greensboro Obama office and has a pack of registration forms in her car at all times. The deadline to register in order to vote in North Carolina's May 6 primary was this past April 11. Today, the Greensboro Fish-Wrap had a story concerning the new registrants.

Adding to the rolls of the approximately 310,000 registered voters in Guilford County were an astounding 9,860 newly registered voters.

9,860!

Wow.

Now we're not saying that Kimberly registered all 9,860 of them, but she did have a marked effect on the lives of many a citizen within our fair city. So much so that "Bernard" from a particularly downtrodden neighborhood remembered her as he visited Obama HQ downtown: "That redhead girl with the spikey hair?"

9,860. There is an electricity in the air.
