11. Thanks. Charging people is a bummer. TBH, I am disappointed I stand corrected.

I know that fundraising is necessary, but this doesn't seem the right way to go about it.

There's no way they could open seating to everyone who wants to go. A 2,200 seat auditorium isn't that big.

Still, charging for tickets and calling them sponsorships isn't a good look.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
