Caucus Training Party

Obama supporters want to show you how to caucus

If you want to understand how the precinct caucuses are going to work on Tuesday night after the polls close and you don't mind a bit of partisan spin, then some Austin Obama supporters are offering a "training session" tonight (see press release below). Or you could read my article about it.

Press release:

What: Texas Kids for Obama and Adult Caucus Voting Training Party - we'll be selling T-Shirts, kids will make Barack Obama posters and engage in other fun kid's activities while parents network and learn about the Democratic Primary/Caucus voting process. We'll have English and Spanish speakers. We're also looking for "Obama-Mama's" to help us prepare food for our hard-working volunteers between now and Tues., March 4th. We'll enjoy jazz music by Jeff Lofton.

When: Friday, Feb. 29th, 5:00pm

Where: Victory Grill, 1104 E. 11th Street (1/4 mile East of I-35)

Cost: FREE (donations are accepted and proceeds will go to Barack Obama campaign)
