Anderson Clayton on hand to help launch Biden-Harris Winston-Salem campaign office
By Judie Holcomb-Pack
On Saturday, May 18, the Biden-Harris presidential campaign opened an office in Winston-Salem. Kimberly Hinton-Robinson is the field organizer and the office will be open Tuesday-Thursday from 11 a.m. – 8 p.m., Friday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., Saturday from 8 a.m. – 6 p.m., and Sunday from 11 a.m. – 6 p.m. The office is gearing up to recruit and train phone bankers, door-to-door canvassers, literature packing and dropping off, and registering people to vote. For information on volunteering, call 919-988-0824 or email khintonrobinson@2024victory.com.
”We are excited about being here and we especially want to thank the Forsyth County Democratic Party and their volunteers for supporting us as we opened our campaign office,” said Hinton-Robinson. “We look forward to winning in Forsyth County, North Carolina, and for a Biden-Harris victory in 2024.”
In conjunction with the opening of the Biden-Harris campaign office, the Forsyth County Democratic Party held an open house to show off their newly-remodeled headquarters. Nearly 100 people attended the open house and many came especially to meet Anderson Clayton, who at age 26, is the youngest chair of a state Democratic party and probably of any party in the U.S. Clayton grew up in Roxboro, North Carolina, and graduated from Appalachian State University. She worked on Congresswoman Kathy Manning’s congressional campaign, in Iowa as a field organizer for the presidential campaigns of Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren, and then for the Senate campaign of Amy McGrath.
Clayton’s unbridled enthusiasm got the crowd cheering. She stated that she has visited all 100 counties in North Carolina and that every one of them was crowded with volunteers who were committed to turning N.C. blue in 2024.
In speaking to the crowd, she said, “We do this work for the people who can’t be here in this room … (who have to work and care for their families) … we’re fighting for families in North Carolina!”
The Forsyth County Democratic Party headquarters is located at 723 Coliseum Dr., Suite 201. Call them at 336-546-7711. For more information, visit www.fcdpnc.org.
