OMG southern Shakespeare? That's just wrong.
But that sounds like such an exciting adventure!! And all on River Street, too! That's a fun street to walk down at night drunk. Not that I'd know or anything....

So what does a delegate do?

How were the festivals?

Delegates represent their district (a small section of the county). They have a vote on anything pertinent. This time, most was just house-keeping kind of stuff (number of quorum votes required, etc.)

The festivals were EXCELLENT. Lots of cheap everything....from great food to intoxicating drink.

Ha!

Yeah...

The democracy thing was really interesting.

There were vendors there that had all of this pro-Republican stuff...bumper-stickers, hats, ties, buttons....you name it. Some was pretty tasteless (A button of Monica saying that "This year, I'm voting Republican....the democrats left a bad taste in my mouth...") I did laugh at that one.

I got the guy to admit that he also sells to the Democrats at their convention.....

Commerce in Action!

Thanks...it was fun.
