Clinton and Obama Staff On The Band Wagon

The Clinton campaign partnered with College Democrats to host a party in the Vista in SC complete with food, music, and free tokens to take advantage of the air hockey, arcade games, and pool tables. Campaign workers and convention delegates at the party wore ONE bands and T-shirts, and several people told me how much they love the ONE Campaign and the work we are doing. We banded more people, and many said they’d visit our table at the convention to sign up.

After a short walk down the street we made our way to the Students for Barack Obama after party, which was held at another local hotspot. We met and banded one of the hosts, South Carolina State Representative and USC law student Bakari Sellers at the event. Obama staffers and guests were also wearing their ONE shirts and bands as they danced along to a mix of hip-hop and reggaeton, with a little bit of old school thrown into the mix.

We received compliments and questions about ONE at this party, and banded even more people.
