Presidential Debate Watch Party #4

JOIN DEMOCRATS TO
SHARE, LEARN, LAUGH, DECIDE

The fourth round has been finalized and it is 1 night and 12 candidates.  Hosts will lead pre- and post-debate discussion. Play debate bingo!  Share your opinions in a safe environment.

Bring an appetizer or sweet to share (all food goes home with donor at the end of the evening) and your own drinks. 
We will order food to share (asking for a donation to cover the cost.) 

Don't sit alone in your living room yelling at the TV.  Instead join fellow Dems on Tues., October 15th at 6:30 pm and cheer on your favorite, or narrow your own field.
