Las Vegas, NV – 2,200 energized Nevada Democrats rallied in Las Vegas last night in advance of our First in the West presidential caucuses on February 20th. The “raucous crowd” at the MGM Grand was fired up to hear from Democratic candidates Hillary Clinton, Martin O’Malley and Bernie Sanders at the Nevada State Democratic Party’s “Battle Born/Battleground” First in the West Caucus Dinner.
Here’s a look at what Twitter had to say about last night’s big event:
This is going to be quite the event. Looks like a convention floor. #wematter pic.twitter.com/NUtSdM6UQT
