The Polk County Democratic Executive Committee is pleased to announce they will be hosting a 2020 DNC Convention Preview for all Democrats in Congressional Districts 9, 15, and 17.

Craig T. Smith, who has more than 30 years in the political field will be our speaker. Craig served with then-Governor Bill Clinton in several different capacities, to become the first employee of the Clinton for President Exploratory Campaign in 1991. After Clinton’s election, Smith became the Political Director of the Democratic National Committee. Smith served in the White House until 1999, when he became the Campaign Manager for Vice President Al Gore. Smith went on to serve as Senior Advisor for the Ready for Hillary Super PAC and helped lay the groundwork for her 2015 Hillary For America Campaign. He currently serves as President of CTSGP, Inc., a political consulting firm he founded in 2013.

Craig will be explaining who is eligible to be a delegate to the national convention and how the delegates will be elected. If you are even thinking about going to the Democratic National Convention in Milwaukee, WI, July 13 – 16, 2020, please join us for a very informative afternoon. Refreshments will be served.

SDC member, Ellis Moose, who was an elected Hillary Clinton delegate to the 2016 National Convention in Philadelphia is also expected to attend to answer your questions.
