Elizabeth Warren’s Sunday campaign event in Seattle has been moved to accommodate more people.
The presidential candidate’s campaign says the event, previously scheduled for the WaMu Theater near CenturyLink Field, will now be held at the International Fountain at Seattle Center.

Warren, a U.S. senator from Massachusetts, is running second or third among nearly two dozen Democratic candidates in polling averages. She will be the first top-tier Democratic candidate to hold a public campaign event in Seattle this year.
The “Seattle Town Hall with Elizabeth Warren” is scheduled to begin at 2:15 p.m.
Tickets are not required, but the campaign says an RSVP is “strongly encouraged.”

Good thing they moved to the larger venue!

of caucuses more than a decade ago. It took the party leadership this long to finally accept that the voters really hated the caucuses.

Good riddance.

I took part in it in Vancouver, WA back in 2016...and I really felt it was ineffective and had a lot of flaws to it. Seems to disenfranchise the voters, and I know I felt confused and wondering wtf was even going on.
