Politics Digital Politics At Acme!

Posted by Scott Moore on Fri, May 4 at 4:25 PM

Speaking of the internet, and web-based campaigning/fundraising!

Check this out, dork: The Oregon Bus Project and Loaded Orygun (with some help from us and others) are holding a forum on May 15th at Acme called “Digital Politics: More That Meets The Eye” to talk about “how technology is transforming the political playing field.”

Signed on so far:
Kari Chisholm from Blue Oregon & Mandate Media
Anna Galland from MoveOn.org
and the Mercury’s own Amy J. Ruiz
plus “everyone’s favorite (or most hated) office assistant, Clippy from MS Word!”

The biggest news—the forum will be moderated by renowned political journalist/blogger/strategist David Sirota.

Even better? It’s Election Night, so I’ll be there blogging away about the election returns and, god willing, we’ll turn the rest of the evening into an Election Night Party.

Oh man. This looks sweet!

I'll be missing election night because of Kristin Hersh at the Aladdin.

I may be mistaken, but haven't you seen her, like, three times already this year?

Acme... That means Young's Double Chocolate Stout. Tasty.

Not with full band!

I'm sure someone will txt my phone with the ballot measure results.
