Senator Cory Booker brought his presidential campaign to Clinton on Sunday, May 26 and spoke to an attentive crowd including County Chair Bill Jacobs and Patrice Golinvaux, met with people informally, took a selfie with me (and many others) , and took questions including a couple of tough ones on health care from a former county chair, Highland Nichols. The central committee is not endorsing any candidate, but we cooperate with their events when they come to town and enjoy listening to them.
