Duke’s newfound voting spirit has extended past Main West Quadrangle all the way into Wallace Wade Stadium.
At his weekly media luncheon Tuesday, Duke head coach David Cutcliffe–who has taken to opening his press conferences with political allusions and de-briefings–said he had voted already, just two weeks after congratulating a local reporter for voting early. While several media member sported an assortment of “I voted!” stickers, there were none on the coach’s lapel.
In addition, Cutcliffe encouraged the players to register and vote today, said cornerback Chris Rwabukamba, who is a Canadian citizen and is often ribbed by his teammates for not being able to vote.
Strange sight of the day: Cutcliffe said his wife, Karen, spotted a donkey while driving to her local polling station. Could be a good sign for supporters of Sen. Barack Obama.
