Hillary Clinton in Los Angeles
Fresh off her New Hampshire Primary win Tuesday night, Democratic presidential candidate and New York Senator Hillary Clinton will be in Los Angeles today stumping for votes in anticipation of California's Feb. 5 Primary.
Team Clinton will speak at the IBEW-ETI training site, where she will talk about environmentally friendly jobs.
From her site:
Join Hillary and fellow Hillary supporters for an informational dialogue on the importance of creating more environmental jobs in California. The first 300 guests will have guaranteed entrance so please arrive promptly. Due to security purposes, we cannot allow any types of signs. (HillaryClinton.com)
The details: the event is today from 10:30 AM - 1:00 PM at the IBEW-ETI Training Site, located at 6023 Garfield Ave. Commerce, CA 90040.
Clinton still has a pretty commanding lead over Barack Obama in most California polls, which is nothing to cry over.
