On the evening of October 13th, Democrats from 41 states, including 31 State Democratic Parties and 205 County Democratic Parties, will hold 236 watch parties for the first Democratic debate of the 2016 cycle. Democratic state parties will also partner with Snapchat in order to showcase watch parties from around the country on their Story.
“With more than 230 events across the country where Americans will gather in support of policies that help the middle class, what happens in Vegas, definitely won’t stay in Vegas,” said Kaylie Hanson, DNC spokeswoman.
Watch parties across the country are opportunities for Democrats to engage and mobilize supporters in key states nationwide and celebrate our shared values of strengthening the middle class and supporting working families across the country. Democrats will ensure that Americans understand the choice between a Democratic presidential candidate who will fight for all Americans, and Republicans who prioritize the wealthiest Americans and most powerful Washington special interests over the middle class.
