Kierra, a delegate from Washington, DC is excited to finally be in Denver. We talked to Kierra earlier this summer when she was first selected as a delegate and were lucky enough to catch up with her in Denver.
“I’m having such a great time!” She said enthusiastically.
It’s so nice to be physically next to delegations on the Convention floor that we have been trying to work with so that we can all lobby together to fight for Barack Obama and the issues that are most important to us.
Colorado is pretty familiar to Kierra – she attended high school and college here – but she was thrilled to be back. “It’s so nice to be back under different pretenses. It is always interesting to return to somewhere you haven’t been for awhile to see the new perspective you have. I was here in high school and college just beginning my education about the world, and now I am back as a professional."
Besides Barack’s acceptance speech on Thursday night, Kierra is most excited about the Women’s Caucus where passionate women will come together and discuss some of the big issues of this election. “Hopefully it’s going to be one big sister love fest,” Kierra said.
Since she has been at the convention, Kierra has met California Congresswoman Maxine Waters, connected with other Democrats, and has focused on promoting women’s rights as a major issue in this campaign. She says,
I can’t imagine how much better it can get!
