Brighton Obama Unite for Change Event Features Former Clinton Activist

Supporters of Barack Obama are getting organized in Livingston County -- with the help of a former supporter of Sen. Hillary Clinton.

Debby Buckland, who was the state field director for Clinton in two states, is co-hosting the Obama Unite for Change event at 1 p.m. Saturday (June 28, 2008) at Livingston County Democratic Party headquarters, 10321 E. Grand River, Suite 600 of the Fonda office park, in Brighton.

No political experience is necessary. Come and find out how you can help elect Barack Obama right here in Livingston County, simply by talking to other people. Call (810) 229-4212 for more information.

The event will take about an hour. Refreshments and Obama bumper stickers and buttons will be available (for a donation). Call (810) 229-4212 for more information.

Having Debby working as a volunteer for this campaign shows how serious we are about finding every possible Obama vote in our county.

Debby worked in West Virginia and Minnesota as the state field director for Clinton, but now is enthusiastic to be volunteering for Obama.

"My candidate didn't win, but we're all Democrats and after the primaries are over, we shake hands and go back to work for the winner," she said.

Debby has significant campaign experience. She was campaign manager for Edward Woods III for Lansing Community College Trustee in Lansing in 2007; worked for the Bill Richardson for President campaign in Linn County, Iowa, during 2007 as lead field organizer; was field director for the Christine Jennings Recount Campaign in Sarasota, Florida,in 2006; was regional field director for the 2006 Michigan Coordinated Campaign in Lansing, and was lead field organizer for the 2004 Michigan Coordinated Campaign in Livingston County.

Come Saturday and learn from Debby how we can help elect Barack Obama right here in Livingston County!
