Do candidates ever stop in Council Bluffs? |
|
I'd like to see some candidates speak and I thought since Iowa is such an important state for the primaries, they might stop in Council Bluffs. Is that the case?

Edwards, Obama, Clinton, Richardson, and Biden have been here already. I just got a call from the Dodd people that he will be here in the summer (sorry can't recall the date. He just opened an office across from the fountain in down town CB - I'm sure they would know).
I haven't been able to get to any of them!
-Edwards was here first and drew a few hundred IIRC. He's supposed to return later in the year. -Obama drew a really large crowd at Iowa Western Community College a couple months ago (a couple thousand I think). I happened to be at a piano recital at IWCC at the time and it seems like half of the cars entering the parking lot to hear him were from Nebraska! -Biden was at the National Guard armory 5 or 6 weeks ago. -I think Richardson spoke at a residence in Carter Lake. -Hillary was here in May.
Don't know about the rest.
I get calls from them often (some times repbulicans call too). If I remember, I can post upcoming events here.
The Obama people are really phone happy. We've received at least 6 calls from them in the last few weeks wanting to know if we've made up our minds etc. Ironically, I didn't know he was in town until the day of his appearance. Now they won't leave me alone!

I'll have to keep watching Websites for dates. I hadn't seen any so far so I was starting to wonder if anyone ever got out to this area.
