Help OBAMA WIN the Clark County Convention (Meeting)
The 2008 Clark County Democratic Convention will be held on Saturday, February 23 at 9:00 a.m. in the Grand Ballroom at Bally’s Las Vegas Hotel and Casino, 3645 Las Vegas Boulevard South, Las Vegas, NV 89109.
We NEED ALL OBAMA SUPPORTERS TO ATTEND. Nevada has a three tier caucus and therefore the delegates Senator Obama won can be lost, if we do not have enough delegates to keep them at the County Convention. Please attend as a delegate, alternate, or guest and wear your Obama gear. NO STICKERS WILL BE ALLOWED AT THE CONVENTION.
A total of 7,240 Delegates were allocated at the Precinct Caucuses on January 19. Our first priority is to fill every one of those positions, including those for Precincts which did not elect Delegates. We also welcome Democrats who want to attend as Alternates or Guests, so the final number of participants could exceed 8,000.
If you were elected as a Delegate, you should have received a post card similar to one you can view or download here. Please save your post card – it has your Precinct number printed on it, and you will need your Precinct number for registration. If you did not receive a post card, don't worry about it -- if you think you were elected as a Delegate, you can register and we will sort it out.
If you were NOT elected as a Delegate, AND you attended your Precinct Caucus, you can register as an Alternate – even if you did not sign up as an Alternate at your Caucus. If you did not attend your Caucus, you are most welcome to attend the Convention by registering as a Guest.
Pre-Registration has already started. All Democrats who plan to attend are strongly urged to Pre-Register. This will save you time, and also relieve congestion at the Convention by reducing the number of people who have to fill out registration forms on site.
Through February 15, you can download the Registration form at http://www.ccdemconvention.com/ It is set up to be filled out onscreen, then printed and mailed. It cannot be submitted by email, and you cannot save the completed form electronically. If you prefer, you can print the blank form and fill it out by hand – but if you do PLEASE print legibly.
If for any reason you do not know your Precinct Number, you can look it up at the clark county convention website http://www.ccdemconvention.com/
If it is after the 15th, you can register at Bally's. On-Site Registration, Check-in, and Distribution of Credentials will take place at Bally’s, near the Event Center, from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on Friday, February 22, and from 8:00 a.m. until 12:00 Noon on Saturday, February 23.
If you have not pre-registered, you will need to fill out the Registration form on-site.
Even if you have pre-registered, you must check in and pick up your credentials on-site.
Please note that there is a $50 requested donation to help offset the convention cost, however please be advised that this is not mandatory for you to participate in the convention and we ask that you ATTEND, even if you do not pay the requested fee.
