Related: About this forumI'm So Stoked! Really Pumped! Just Got Off a Conference Call. #ImWithHer #ShesWithUs (HILLARY GROUP)
Just was on a conference call for all Nevada State Convention Democratic delegates for Hillary. To summarize, this is what was said on the call by Michelle White (@MickyWhiteNV), Political Director for @HillaryforNV:
- First she thanked everyone for their support of Secretary Clinton
- The campaign (including Hillary) is aware of what went on in some of the conventions
--- Especially in Clark County (Las Vegas)
- Despite what is being said by some online, the reality is that we still have the state
--- We need to remain focused on the next step -- the state convention on May 14th
- It's critical to be there in May for both full- and -alternate delegates
- The campaign is seeking to assist everyone -- especially those outside of Vegas -- to get to the state convention
- You'll have to pre-register online again
- Credentials can be picked up Fri., May 13th or morning of the 14th by 10:00 am
--- Doors will close at 10:00 am sharp
- Exact location of the convention has yet to be determined at this time
--- Campaign will be sure to keep us all in the loop
- Michelle thanked everyone for being so incredibly well behaved despite the behavior of some of the opposite
--- Asked that we continue to conduct ourselves in that manner and to respect the other side despite our differences in opinion
----- "We need more love and kindness in the world." - Hillary Clinton
-------- Remember this despite the convention. Let's keep this in mind and stay on the high road
- Briefly talked about Senator Sanders saying that Hillary isn't qualified
--- Unfortunate turn of events
--- Keep our eyes on the prize
- Debate watch parties will be organized for 4/14 with potlucks.
--- Campaign will be in contact in the coming days.
- Talked about New York primary on 4/19
--- Let's do some calls on the evening of the New York debate (4/14)
- Campaign wants to improve communications for the state convention
--- Subsequently going to be doing SMS updates day of convention for those who opt-in
------ Real-time communication will help us to counter any chaos that may occur.
- If you notice any issues ahead of convention, please email xxxxxxx@hillaryclinton.com for a response w/in 24-48 hours
SPECIAL GUEST!!!!!!
She had the following to say to us. Keep in mind that I'm paraphrasing, so in no way should Secretary Clinton be quoted:
"Thank you all for your support!... We know about what happened in Clark County and I want you to know, we're gonna have your back!... We have to protect our lead... Stay focused... Thousands counting on you as their representatives to the state convention... As state delegates and alternates, you are essential to the process... I need you to do everything you can and be there on May 14th... Thank you all and onward!"

(7,480 posts)I don't think we find it necessary Hillary's supporters to go about thumping our chests in the process.

Thank you for sharing this!

(7,480 posts)You just know that things have got to be extraordinarily hectic for her. I'm sure she's bouncing all over New York in the hopes of moving closer to securing the nomination even more. Senator Sanders is making a strong showing and he does very well at coming from behind. Secretary Clinton knows this, and she's trying to meet with as many groups as she can. Friends in NY tell me she continues to be popular there and they've not forgotten all she did as senator.

(7,480 posts)However, I'm not sure if we are allowed to share it. We weren't told that we couldn't and we weren't told anything sensitive, but it's probably to be cautious just in case.

(7,480 posts)Baby SaF is doing great. Mom is actually getting about 4-5 hours of uninterrupted sleep a night. I'm a light sleeper, so until baby stops being so vocal -- she coos and grunts a lot -- I'm sleeping in the guest room. In other news, Mommy has accepted that baby is getting my standard issue brown eyes rather than blue/green ones.

Like how they said to keep taking the high road and take the long view!
No need for stupid anger!

(7,480 posts)Neither the organizer or Secretary Clinton said anything bad about Sanders or his folks. I find it very weird that despite that, their side has SO MUCH ANGER toward Hillary.
