November may be months away but local Democrats aren’t wasting any time in their effort to re-elect President Barack Obama. Roughly 50 of the president’s supporters from around the area gathered at the kickoff Wednesday evening at the Racine County Democratic Party’s 2012 campaign headquarters, 606 Sixth St., to listen to a special call from first lady Michelle Obama, and learn about how they ensure Obama gains another term in office.
“You know there is a place on the other side of town run by some other people,” said Jane Witt, chairwoman of the Racine County Democratic Party, firing up the crowd. “It’s called the Victory something. We don’t have a gimmicky name for our place. But we have a lot of other things. We have you. You are the most intelligent, most professional, best looking, hardest working, most dedicated group of campaign workers in the whole state, maybe the whole country.”
