Clinton announces public event at Des Moines fairgrounds

Source: Des Moines Register

Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton announced her next round of Iowa stops Wednesday, including her first large public event in the state.

On June 14, Clinton will host a launch party at the Iowa State Fairgrounds in Des Moines. The event is open to the public, and doors will open at 10:30 a.m.

It will be Clinton's first foray into large-scale retail politics in the state this caucus cycle. So far, Clinton has focused on smaller gatherings with hand-picked attendees — an approach that has garnered criticism from Republicans as well as those in the media.

Clinton will arrive in Iowa June 13 for a house party in Sioux City following a campaign speech in New York. That organizing meeting will be simulcast at dozens of similar events in Iowa and at hundreds of other house parties across the country, according to a campaign news release.
