This snapshot was gathered in conjunction with the Museum on Main Street program at the Smithsonian Institution and its "Stories from Main Street" initiative. The project is intended to capture Americans' impressions and stories about their small-town and rural neighborhoods, waterways, personal memories, cultural traditions, work histories, and thoughts about American democracy. This story is from a group of narratives inspired by the Smithsonian traveling exhibition, "Voices and Votes: Democracy in America."

Phil Lubbers (00:00): Well, as I said, we were very much involved in the community. We are conservative Republicans in our community, and we usually go to the meetings.

(00:11): In fact, about a month ago, we had the county meeting where we have quite a race right now for the congressman from the sixth district, which is Steve King, and he's having three opponents in the primary election.

(00:27): So, we went to the Republican dinner in our county and all four candidates were there to speak, which I thought was very interesting. This way we can kind of find out what each of them really stands for, and we've always been a real proponent of one of the candidates.

(00:44): In fact, we've given money for that person to make it, and it's just been very interesting to listen, when we go to vote, I want to go and vote and be intelligent there and not just, well, that's a name and I've heard about, and he lives in the closest town where we live. I mean, I don't go for that. I wanted to hear what each of them had to say and then make the vote about what I think means the most in my life.

The "Be Here" storytelling project, in conjunction with the Peale, Baltimore's Community Museum, and the Smithsonian's Stories from Main Street initiative, is an effort to gather and distribute stories about community life and places across the United States. The first version of this project began in 2011 with the Stories from Main Street storytelling initiative,  the brainchild of the Smithsonian's Museum on Main Street (MoMS) team. Today, the Peale is partnering with Museum on Main Street to continue the storytelling campaign, often connected thematically to MoMS' traveling exhibitions about topics like work history, waterways, food culture, traditional music, hometown sports, etc. Anyone with an interest in life in America’s towns and communities can add their own experiences to the archive.

The "Be Here" program is an effort to diversify the voices of American cultural stories, stories especially about places that are important to people. To leave a story, download the "Be Here Stories" app on the App Store. Learn more at https://www.thepealecenter.org/bherebmore/
