Bernie is making another "mistake"

He is coming back to Minnesota and booked a venue that only holds 800 people. I think they'll need a bigger space!

Oh, and the suggested contribution is $25. This is probably the first fundraiser that I can afford to attend.

I don't think he's that calculating, he may think since he's been there already sabrina 1 Jun 2015 #3

Maybe he books smaller venues knowing that the overflow crowd will get media attention and help create momentum. Just a thought.

the crowd will be smaller. In CA however, he has rented a very big venue that holds 10,000 people. He might no fill that one up, though I wouldn't be surprised if he does.

I'm somewhat presuming that they are expecting smaller crowds because of that. At the Minneapolis event however, I talked to folks who drove over 3 hours to get there. Rochester is only about 1 hour away from Minneapolis. I think he could seat a couple thousand and still have a sizable overflow crowd.

I was certainly not questioning his intelligence. Sheesh.
