They're letting the Fresno for Bernie group have their meeting at the headquarters but Progressives Democrats of America have been banned -- part of the internecine squabbles that I don't EVEN want to get into.

It's not really an area that gets a lot of foot traffic so I don't know how effective setting up a table would be. It's just odd to me that given that there is a good amount of local support for Sanders that there is, like, NOTHING in the office or on the website.

It's not going to deter us, mind you, we're an activist group and we'll find plenty of tabling opportunities (that's actually my assignment for the next Steering Committee meeting).

The Democratic Party only wants to use Bernie for fund-raising purposes, IMO. djean111 Jul 2015 #4

Yes, and to paint the party as populist. HRC is a banker- and establishment-friendly insider. Doctor_J Jul 2015 #6

Yes, that's my observation in Fl and TB region. HooptieWagon Jul 2015 #13

Set up your own table on the sidewalk outside. It's city property, yes? n/t jtuck004 Jul 2015 #7

That is what I was going to suggest. If this continues try to set up a Democratic Headquarters for jwirr Jul 2015 #12

Up here in Northern CA we have two Democratic Clubs fed-up Jul 2015 #9

I think the PDA (supporting Bernie) already did that. Le Taz Hot Jul 2015 #10

I think those local headquarters depend on candidates MineralMan Jul 2015 #18
