Pics from the Kerry event in Houston, from a Morrison volunteer.
Edited on Fri Apr-23-04 12:56 PM by Lisa0825
My friend Melissa, the vounteer coordinator for the Richard Morrison campaign, posted these pics on their blog (in case ya'll didn't realize, Morrison was part of the event too):

This information was also posted at Morrison's blog:

Both National Public Radio (NPR) and KUHF 88.7 did stories on the event.

1. Many thanks.
Lotsa pics, folks. Love to see the flag flown in the crowd. Not contrived like the Rethugs trying to wrap themselves in it.

3. Wow, lots of people there
What a great crowd!

Is that Representative Jackson Lee in the last photograph?

4. Thanks, ya'll!:-) I wish I could have been there too...
The news said 1000, but my people who were there have said it was over 2000.

And yes, that is Siela Jackson Lee.

5. Way to go Houston
Wish I could have been there. The turnout looked wonderful. Glad to see that Kerry hasn't written off Texas. The KUHF story seemed to underestimate the crowd size didn't they?

(snip)
As Laurie Johnson reports, hundreds of supporters turned out to see and hear Senator Kerry talk about the future of America and the environment.
(/snip)

Hundreds? That sure seemed like thousands in those photos to me.

7. Thanks, Lisa!
For posting the link to the pictures. I really wanted to attend the rally, but my work schedule did not permit it. It just does my heart good to see all those fresh young faces eager to contribute to our country's future. Thanks to all those who attended.
