“Voted. Now going out to knock on doors to urge everyone to vote,” Comey tweeted. 

“Should be fun.”

“He told me it is his first time canvassing,” Fritschner said.  

 

Comstock’s seat is seen as a must-win for Democrats as they fight to retake the House majority. The Cook Political Report rates the race as “lean Democratic.”

Comey has been politically outspoken ahead of the elections, urging people to vote for Democrats this fall.
