Deval Patrick first moves in to Iowa to meet and greet with folks outside a historic black church. 

Next, Patrick unveils new signed campaign merch for sale on his website.

Finally, Deval Patrick, unbothered by his poor debate performance, continues on his quest to gain national notoriety by purchasing Facebook ads targeting boomers. 

Endorsement: Patrick goes for the Kingpin of New York: Governor Cuomo.

Last call to post your events until midnight 


mine was the 3rd posted after debates,   Endorsement was Gov of Nevada

Did this one get resolved and I miss it?

 

Corey Booker

rally / Bon Jovi concert in Las Vegas.   Rally to include Booker and Nevada Gov Steve Sisolak echoing the importance of education, health care, and economic growth for everyone.   Booker will also remind that socialist policies of Sanders are bad for Nevada and bad for America.

2). Create new ad while in Vegas that goes something like this:

show Booker interactions with voters on the street outside of Caesars Palace with the voice over telling us “we cannot afford to gamble with our future using the same failed policies of Trump, Biden and Sanders.  It’s time for new leadership and it’s time for a sure bet like Corey Booker”   Inside Booker places his bet on the roulette “$100 on black” and as the wheel stops spinning we hear “Winner!”      Join the winning team, vote for Booker

I’m Corey Booker and I approve this message because our future is too important to gamble away.

3)  campaign in Reno

NOVEMBER 22ND-NOVEMBER 29TH 2019 TURN

Mike Gravel Campaign @Timur

Rolls:7,7,2

Gravel had an alright week as his ending War on Drugs message and anti-Israel and Saudi Arabia resonated well with his left wing base.The worst moment was his RT appearance,that his opponents called out as "thrash talking America on enemy TV:".

Pete McCloskey Endorsement(needs a 7 or higher):Rolls a 4!

Gravel and McCloskey have one-on-one meeting talking about past future and Gravel 2020 campaign,but no endorsement happened.

Beto O'Rourke Campaign  @Fbarbarossa

Rolls:7,4,6

Not a bad week for Beto,his IA ads showing off Harkin Endorsement make some impact on voters minds,he is well received in college campuses,but his start in SC is not as good as it could have been.

Tom Vilsack Endorsement(needs an 8 or higher):Rolls a 9!

Vilsack endorses Beto,giving him a boost in IA as he has both of IA Toms on his side now.

Tim Ryan Campaign @Sean F Kennedy

Rolls:8,9,10

Ryan had a great week this turn.He mobilized youth vote in IA,his door knocking campaign worked very well and got him some new supporters and his broadband Internet agenda resonated well.

Joseph P Kennedy III(needs an 8 or higher):Rolls a 10!

Rep.Kennedy appears at a rally alongside Ryan and gave him full enthusiastic endorsement for his presidential run.

Cory Booker Campaign @Vols21

Rolls:1,3,6

Booker had a weak week on the campaign trail.His best moment was Event in Reno that went fairly well as his new ad gets mocked and Bon Jovi concert/rally was overshadowed by Sisolak snub

Steve Sisolak Endorsement(needs an 8 or higher):Rolls a 1!

Sisolak publicly rejected to even meet with Booker, saying he has "smarter things to do"

Bernie Sanders Campaign @Zenobiyl

Rolls:3,9,3

Not a great week,but certainly can't be called a bad one as Bernie ads deeply resonate with TX voters earning him new supporters in the state.His TX tour and CA rally seem to lack usual Bernie fire.

Julian Castro Endorsement(needs an 8 or higher):Rolls a 6!

Castro meets with Bernie talking about some key issues facing America.

Steve Bullock Campaign @Kitten

Rolls:6,3,4

After very successful debate Bullock fails to replicate his success on campaign trail.His message of education reform resonates with voters but NH and SC give him below average attendance to his rallies.

Hillary Clinton Endorsement(needs an 8 or higher):Rolls a 6!

Hillary met with Bullock,discussed key issues and gave him some campaign advice.

Bloomberg endorsing De Blasio! @Pringles @Cenzonico

Rolls a 2!

DeBlasio supporters deeply dislike Bloomberg and aren't happy to welcome him to their side and Bloomberg supporters aren’t ready to back a "lefty" De Blasio.

Elizabeth Warren Campaign @Hestia

Rolls:9,7,6

Warren had a good week.Her plans for economy resonate with voters in IA who love her style of firebrand economics,NH gives her warm welcome.

Kamala Harris Endorsement(needs a 9 or higher):Rolls a 10!

Sen.Harris appears in Warren's newest ad,emphasising Warren's record of fighting for the right thing in the Senate.This is a very high profile endorsement that could help Warren in the polls.

Bill De Blasio Campaign @Cenzonico

Rolls:10,10,10

De Blasio had a fantastic week on campaign trail as both his ground work and ads in IA make great impact on voters minds and his progressive message resonates strongly amongst voters in IL

Al Gore Endorsement(needs an 8 or higher):Rolls a 9!

Fmr.VP Al Gore endorses De Blasio,calling him "a great crusader against climate change" and "best candidate on that key issue".

Marianne Williamson Campaign  @WVProgressive

Rolls:1,3,2

Bad week for Marianne,her message poorly resonates among IA rural voters and it only got worse amongst Latinos.Her lowest point though was gaffe in IA where she called to “raise” student debt instead of easing it.

Deepak Chopra Endorsement(needs a 6 or higher):Rolls a 6!

Deepak Chopra released a statement endorsing his “friend” and “kindest soul in dark corridors of politics” for President.

Eric Swalwell Campaign @mark2

Rolls:4,1,2

Swalwell had a weak week,his M4A message resonates in IA,but doesn't attract many voters as that position is held by other,stronger candidates.He isnt well received in NH rural demographic and his rally in Reno was a failure as just 20 people showed up.

Jennifer Konfrst Endorsement(needs a 6 or higher):Rolls a 6!

State Sen.Konfrst announced her endorsement of Swalwell campaign in a video she released on Twitter,praising his “values” and “energy”.

Amy Klobuchar Campaign  @Rezi

Rolls:7,4,7

Klobuchar had an alright week as her “stapler-thrower” ad get voters attention for better or worse,Iowa Diner speech was well received leaving voters definitely considering her as a candidate.Her rally in IA was nothing special.

Ellish meets with Klobuchar talking about issues they both care about but no public statement was made afterwards.

Pete Buttigieg Campaign  @Ich_bin_Tyler

Rolls:8,1,2

A bad week for Buttigieg everywhere except in Sioux City where his message resonates very well with working class voters.His town hall in Vegas went poorly as he seemed weak and unprepared and  his town hall in IA was only worse.

CWU Endorsement(needs an 8 or higher):Rolls a 2!

CWU leaders were very unimpressed with Buttigieg,calling the meeting over after just half an hour.

Deval Patrick Campaign @Cal

Rolls:7,6,9

It can be called a strong weak.Patrick FB ad proves to be real marketing boom as his campaign FB sees the doubling of likes.His meet and greet in IA went well as he was personal and substantial when talking with voters.His campaign merch sale was good but not great.

Andrew Cuomo Endorsement(needs an 8 or higher):Rolls a 6!

Gov.Cuomo praises Patrick campaign as “great addition to Democratic party” praising his “style” and “ideas”.

Tulsi Gabbard Campaign @Willthescout7

Rolls:2,7,7

Gabbard had an alright week except her visit to the national guard in IA where some members boycotted her,stealing her thunder.Her door-to-door campaign in IA went well and her infrastructure message resonated with voters.

Gen.Austin said hes “skeptical” of Gabbard campaign but that he wil endorse her…if she is the Democratic nominee!

Joe Biden Campaign @Dobs

Rolls:1,10,2

1. Fired Up! Ready to Go! The morale of the DeBlasio campaign as at an all time high! A one point eight percent jump in the polls? Amazing! Simply beautiful. Bill himself is jubilant and is ready to continue on the campaign trail! DeBlasio will tour Iowa's biggest cities and give stump speeches across them all. He talks about leadership and "what it takes" to be president. Unlike a certain someone in the White House. 

2. The DeBlasio campaign makes another push on social media this time targeting Twitter specifically. They will try to get Bill a big Twitter following in order to drum up progressive grassroots support. 

3. The DeBlasio campaign launches another round of ads in Iowa. They will also target Iowa's biggest cities to coincide with the stump speech tour on the ground.

Endorsement Request: Bill DeBlasio will attempt to gain the endorsement of the Iowa AFL-CIO. De Blasio cites his message of putting the working class first and how his platform clearly shows his commitment to the issue.

1. Patrick finally hit 1% in the polls. Hooray! To celebrate, he's going out to dinner with the finest healthcare and pharmaceutical lobbyists he can find. After all, he needs money to keep going and he can probably make the argument that a public option is better than mandatory universal healthcare. 

2. Next, Patrick will talk healthcare in South Carolina. 

3. Finally, Patrick attempts to get his poll numbers up enough to get invited to the later, more exclusive debates by campaigning in New York City to moderates who have despised De Blasio for ages. 

Endorsement: New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand
