Showing Up: The 2018 U.S. Senate Campaign Beto O'Rourke

John Glaser showed up on December 17, 2017 to see who Beto O'Rourke was and hear his message. He brought his camera that day to document what he saw, not knowing this was the beginning of a journey to chronicle the final 11 months of the O'Rourke U.S. Senate campaign throughout Houston, Texas and the surrounding areas. See the campaign as John saw it, through the lens of his camera, creating a visual interpretation of Beto's story.See Beto's historic senate campaign through John's eye as he photographed Beto's rise during his stops throughout the Texas Gulf Coast region. Feel the energy John captured from Beto's early campaign town halls attended by 50 to 100 people to when he met with a crowd of 60,000 during the Willie Nelson for Beto rally in Austin. Witness various stops and behind the scenes photos leading up to election day in Beto's hometown of El Paso.â€œWhen I first showed up to see Beto OÊ¼Rourke he had 63,500 followers on Twitter. Eleven months later on election day, he broke the 900,000 mark. And itâ€™s all because he showed up, and left us all with a feeling that doesnâ€™t go awayâ€”hope.â€ â€“ John Glaserâ€œMaybe because someone like John would find it interesting enough to be a part of this, to spend his days capturing these events and this campaign. Maybe because those who volunteered with us would give up their lives for an hour, a day, a year to connect with their fellow Texans in the most honest, unguarded way... Because people who disagreed with me would show up to listen to what I had to say and more importantly share with me what was on their mind. We showed that we could be good to each other, respectful, even if we didnâ€™t see eye to eye.â€ -- Beto Oâ€™Rourke
