The Statewider Tour for Health Care Reform Continues...

Nevada for Health Care continued its Statewide Tour for Health Care Reform Monday morning with a coffee outside the Beatty Medical Center, then headed to Tonopah for an early afternoon caucus training. Voters here are still gearing up for the January caucuses.  The RV took off on the road again, arriving in Hawthorne for an evening pizza party and mock caucus.  In Hawthorne, voters packed the room and were eager to learn about the caucuses. Health Care Voters in Hawthorne shared personal stories about their struggles with access to quality, affordable health care. 

On Tuesday morning, the RV left for the next tour stop in Yerington.  Health Care Voters enjoyed their local pizza joint, the Pizza Factory on Main Street.  They asked great questions about the caucuses and how the Democratic and Republican events differ.  The mock caucus came down to a tight match between mushroom, pineapple and pepperoni, with mushroom narrowly earning two delegates, to pineapple and pepperoni's one each after cheese failed to meet its viability threshold. 

Nevada for Health Care and the purple RV wound through Wilson Canyon Tuesday afternoon, en route to a viewing of SiCKO and caucus training.  Health Care Voters packed Antioch Coffee, filling every chair in the shop. After seeing SiCKO, voters were even more engaged in the discussion of the upcoming election and where all of the candidates stand on the health care issue. The mock caucus following the SiCKO showing was heated, with pineapple missing viability.  Check for more updates from the road as Nevada for Health Care continues its journey through the state, bringing mock caucuses to pizza and coffee shops near you!
