Can the Alliance Bring Out U.D.P. Delegates for Unity Convention?

Coordinating the mobilization of hundreds of U.D.P. delegates from all corners of the country is no small feat. This immense effort, spearheaded by the Alliance for Democracy, involves a substantial financial investment. But just how challenging has it been to orchestrate this massive event?

“Let’s talk about the Unity Convention and the planning for this event.  You are trying to mobilize as many delegates from across the country as possible to converge on the Birds’ Isle on October twentieth.  What has it been like, in terms of being able to reach out to these individuals and pitch to them the idea that this is the event that they want to attend in terms of trying to make change in the party?”

“It hasn’t been as hard as one would think.  The delegates that are part of the alliance have all shared the same values and where there are delegates with colleagues who may not be supporting the alliance as yet, some of those delegates have reached out to us and said we are interested in hearing what your platform is, why it’s important at this time.  And so, we have been reaching out to delegates, visiting with delegates, those who are members of the alliance and those who are not members of the alliance. We all agree that the current situation is untenable and there needs to be some definitive action to make sure we right the ship.”
