Democratic Primary and Convention Information

[Fritz]

The Democratic Party will hold a primary election to determine our party's nominee or endorsee for President, on the weekend of October 1-3.  Only registered Democrats will be eligible to vote.

Anyone seeking the Democratic nomination should make an announcement here, as well as on the Democratic Party forums (link in my signature).

All declared candidates for President will be on the ballot.  If the winner is a Democrat, that will be our party's nominee.  If the winner is not a Democrat, that will be the candidate our party endorses.

A majority is required to win.  If no candidate receives a majority, the candidates will have the opportunity to trade delegates between themselves at the Democratic National Convention.

The Convention will be held immediately following the primary election, in Honolulu, Hawaii.

You really that the Democratic party has fallen by the wayside since I resigned?

You may not like me but you need me.

[King]

[PBrunsel]

Hawaii, excellent choice for a convention.

[Niles Caulder]

I won't go to Hawaii unless fritz gets me tickets to see don ho.

ROFL!

[Akno21]

Fritz, may I have a speaking slot at the Convention?

[7,052,770]

The Harry/Akno ticket enters the primary.

[Akno21]

I confirm that and hope for the AFDNC's support.

[Fritz]

Fritz, may I have a speaking slot at the Convention?

Of course, I was hoping you would.  

Any other speakers?

[Akno21]

Any other speakers?

Thank you.

[Defarge]

On behalf of the great state of New York, I will make a speech at the convention.  

[Fritz]

Thank you, Defarge!  I'll put you on the agenda.

[Gabu]

I'd be glad to make a speech, if you'd like.

[Fritz]

Yes, Gabu, that would be wonderful.

[TheWildCard]

I'd just like to take the time to as Governor of the Pacific to welcome the Democratic Convention... *Cough*and the revenue it'll bring *cough*

[Fritz]

Well thank you Governor.  I am glad someone is welcoming us, since Lewis's cat won't do it.  

[Nym90]

I would like to speak, if the party will have me.

[Akno21]

I'm not chairman, but I think I speak for the entire party when I say we would be honored to have you.

[Fritz]

I would like to speak, if the party will have me.

Of course.

So our speakers currently are:

Fritz
Defarge
Gabu
Akno21
Nym90
Nominee/endorsee (probably Harry, and you better make a speech    )

[Akno21]

This is interesting, who will introduce Harry, since his current VP candidate will be there and the person he served as VP under will be there as well. Or Fritz, the party chairman.

Anyway, we should start to make a schedule for speaking and other events on our off-site forum.
