Quick question - are any candidates coming to Austin, Tx in any near future?

[Lithos]

Hillary, Sanders, O'Malley, Lessig, (?)

Would like to hear them in person...

Thanks in advance,

1. I went to the Travis County Dems website but didn't see anything.

I've got friends & family who live in Austin so I was curious.

I did see this though.

And it made me sad.

2. That makes all of us from Texas that are on DU sad.

3. I do think Texas could go Democrat if it were inspired

That's why the Repubs are trying so hard to keep it fractionated and disaffected.

4. Agree with you

I think it could go at least Purple with a little help - we're too much of a money source and not an investment.

I remember when Obama came here twice to speak. It was amazing to see and hear.

A little backstory - I'm wanting a couple of date nights with my wife and I know she'll agree to any visit by a candidate. She was with me to see/hear Obama and she'd love to hear what any candidate might say....

6. +1,000

just because you want a date night with your wife (as opposed to a hookup from Ashley Madison) and because you want to hear from our Democratic candidates. ...and give her some of these too:

5. Yep

Do you think it's time for a Texas/Austin meetup somewhere? I really would like one before some speaker or afterwards (though that's getting late)

7. Bernie is supposed to be going back to Texas soon.

They don't usually announce the rallies until close to the event. You can keep up on his events at BernieSanders.com.
