Here are some Happy Facts

Phoenix drew 11,000. Phoenix is bigger. Phoenix is generally MORE conservative than Tucson. There is a bit of a rivalry between the Cities and Universities. The Park Amphitheater ONLY holds 7,000 people. Tucson is under a 2 hour drive from Phoenix. People have been known to carpool. Democrats in Phoenix AND Tucson want our State to GO BLUE. Arizona is DEAD last in education, once upon a time we got to say "At least we aren't Mississippi, but no longer..." Gov. Ducey = Gov. Brownback so we're hosed.

So what if? Tucson OUTDRAWS Phoenix for Bernie? It would require a new venue. Would that be newsworthy? Surely it would be here in Arizona! BUT wait there's more! What if Tucson OUTDRAWS BOSTON!? Would that make the National News? I bet it would! Did I say carpooling San Diego? Los Angeles? Riverside? Prescott? Flagstaff? El Paso? (yep, look at that map!)

Oh and wouldn't that be a nice BERN to Phoenix who ONLY drew 11,000????

So how is it going so far? To this moment only 1.2K have signed up via Facebook, BUT these kinds of things are J Curvy! So YES it's doable. Can you beat Phoenix and get Bernie on the local news? Can you beat Boston and get him on the NATIONAL NEWS???

What say you Tucson?

Oh and to help, I am going. I am going to help my Tucson brothers and sisters because I WANT to FORCE the media to NOTICE what is going on under their sad little under-reporting noses. I want the news people to stop telling me what's going to be on TV next, I don't want to buy the soap they are selling, but I do want them to go to their News Editors and SAY, WE HAVE TO REPORT THIS!!!!

Ok, so who is IN???
