By Bernie's people, I mean the local chapter of the Elect Bernie campaign. They had a booth and were selling t-shirts, buttons and bumper stickers, as well as handing out flyers.

They sold quite a few, as I saw many people wearing them. I didn't see any Hillary shirts.

From the website:

The Petaluma Progressives are a local, grassroots, political education and action group. In addition to hosting The Progressive Festival each year, we have held public protests and vigils, lobbied elected officials, done work in our local schools, endorsed and worked on progressive candidates' campaigns, hosted one night a month at the Friday Night Film series at the Foundry Wharf, etc. etc. Our monthly meetings are held the first Tuesday of each month, at 7 pm, downstairs in: Copperfields Books, 140 Kentucky Street, Petaluma. All are welcome.



Thanks for the report!

with my son, great event. I go to this most every year but this year we had Bernie's campaign to rally around, you could feel the bern there for sure. Met some of the people who were tabling for Bernie, and the Project Censured people, glad to talk to such great folk.

Hey Cartoonist, check in if you like, glad to meet local Bernie types.

I photoshopped this sticker the previous night and handed some out at the festival. If anybody likes it, grab the image and print your own, or send me a PM if you need higher resolution. I'm no graphic artist at all, just having fun. The state pic is the drought map. Sorry if this is a little large for the thread:
