What would you ask at the CA Democratic Convention?
Jane SusskindThis weekend, members of the Independent Voter Network team are attending the 2012 California Democratic Convention in San Diego. Kymberly Bays, our lovely new editor, Benjamin Wong, our tech-savvy film and media intern, and myself will be covering the events as they unfold, with live-tweets and updates! Some of the key events planned for this weekend are:
Friday:Saturday:Sunday:
On both Friday and Saturday night, Hospitality Suites will begin at 10pm and end at midnight, giving the delegates an opportunity to network with fellow Democrats from around the state. Compared to the celebratory and positive tone that characterized last years convention, this year is likely to take on a more serious and somber tone. As Kym Bays reports:
Stakes are higher this time around, as it’s an election year and big changes to the California electoral landscape are ensuring this year’s Convention has different tone...This year, California has a new map of legislative districts and open primaries complicating things for a party that was already winning quite easily.
We expect to hear from the Democrats on some of these main issues and would love your input! We asked on Twitter:
