(1,446 posts)It is actually being held at the Family Arena in St. Charles, just outside St. Louis.

(31,935 posts)Our rally in Kissimmee FL started at 3pm but was listed as starting a noon, which was when doors opened, so most people got there at 10am!

(6,094 posts)I saw that on the news so may not be true
His venue in Charlotte is an amphitheater that seats about 20k and probably more SRL. Clinton is also in Charlotte today in a 3k venue. That they are each back in NC suggests things could be narrowing in NC, but there is a big gap to close. Still expect a big Clinton win here in NC, but hope not.

(22,271 posts)(Not that I'd be able to see any of their responses.) I'd be done after the 2nd one and I'm only 60.
Lorien
(31,935 posts)other than the MSNBC town hall, I suspect that she has some fund raisers, but rallies? probably not.
Tanuki
(14,893 posts)Then you would know that in addition to the Town Hall, she will be speaking at rallies in Illinois and North Carolina today.

March 14, 2016 Springfield, Illinois Democratic Town Hall (MSNBC) Hillary Clinton
But that's just today. You scroll down the list, and everything else for the next month is either "Conversation" or "Fundraiser."

(31,935 posts)we get to know a person without the biases that "packaging" might give us. When I was about 30 I was attending a party for an office worker who was turning 64. He never *seemed* 64 to me, so I asked him "Ralph, how old are you really?" and without hesitation he replied "26!" That seemed about right.

(7,231 posts)While Clinton keeps alienating voters all over the spectrum. So far, her biggest "success" was at Nancy Reagan's funeral (may she rot in Hell).

(22,308 posts)I think the town hall is on Ohio. I would bet the events outside of Ohio are rallies he will not attend.

(39,451 posts)He wasn't his usual peppy self last night and stumbled a little bit.
BernieforPres2016
(3,017 posts)He said twice in a row that Trump says incomes in Ohio are too low when he meant to say Trump says incomes are too high. He didn't get an audience reaction because they were probably confused.
But I am apparently a little campaign weary too because I didn't catch his mistake the first time I heard it.
But other than the one misstatement I thought he did very well. I thought Hillary's responses on fracking and the death penalty were classic triangulating Hillary and illustrations of why so many people don't trust her.
I hope he will take a day or two off or have a very light schedule after the primaries tomorrow before he completely destroys his voice.
jillan
(39,451 posts)Is what the msm is focusing on this morning . She also misspoke last night.
Punkingal

(44,129 posts)GO BERNIE!
Duval
(4,280 posts)But, I still agree with you that this is a REALLY tough schedule!
Zorra
(27,670 posts)Bernie understands that his becoming President of the US is crucial to the preservation of the freedom, rights, and well being of the 99% and our future generations, critical even to the survival of our planet.
retrowire
(10,345 posts)He is electrically charged by progressive values and love for your fellow man.
mountain grammy
(26,568 posts)you shouldn't be president. He's a grassroots candidate, meaning "how many people can I touch in a day?"
Go Bernie!

(594 posts)in that she has Bill who can hold rallies and meetings for her. Sanders has to do it all himself, and his schedule is impressive. I was floored when I saw that, after speaking in St. Louis yesterday, he was going to Ohio and NC before coming back to the St. Louis area tonight.

(274 posts)Without looking, I'm guessing the (Comcast-MSNBC) town hall, that I was not aware of... is in the vicinity of MO/IL? "When the going gets tough... the tough get going"! GO BERNIE 2016

(1,198 posts)the election, Sanders is going to keep campaigning forbour progressive adenda. If we err and nominate Hillary instead, she will stop campaign and simply preside over whatever legislation Ryan sends her.
