July 3, 2015 introducing Sen. Bernie Sanders

Today, I am announcing my candidacy for National Delegate to represent Pottawattamie County in the Iowa Delegation at the National Democratic Convention in July.

I am running as National Delegate because I want to represent the grassroots movement that pushed Bernie forward in Iowa and especially in Council Bluffs, where I worked alongside many amazing people to pull off a historic victory for Bernie Sanders in Pottawattamie County by beating Hillary Clinton. Pottawattamie County was a stronghold for Hillary Clinton in 2008.
