Obama Event in Davenport on Monday is Invitation Only

From the Quad Cities Times...

Barack Obama’s Monday stop in Davenport will be an invitation-only event, his campaign said Friday.

The Illinois senator is swinging through battleground states on his way to accepting the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination next week at its national convention in Denver.

The campaign is hoping to put Obama in a smaller, more intimate setting, thus the controlled access.

“We want to invite undecided voters from across the political spectrum to discuss how Sen. Obama will bring Democrats, Republicans and independents together to bring the change our country needs,” said Jenni Lee, who is a campaign spokesperson.

This campaign stop is part of Obama's Battleground State Tour. He has other stops in Wisconsin, Missouri, and Montana before heading to the Democratic Convention in Denver.

Joe Biden will not attending these events.
