They came to discuss the upcoming presidential debate and voice what they believe is the opinion of the people they serve around the country.Joining them were journalists from the Associated Press, the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Times, and various other national media outlets. As Mark Meckler, President and Founder of Citizens for Self-Governance, explained at the beginning of the call, many journalists are curious to know what the grassroots think about current topics, but aren’t sure where to begin. The Grassroots Roundtable was started as a way to fill that void.\\ So if you’re curious what the grassroots think about Donald Trump, which candidate they believe can beat Hillary, or which issues they want the candidates to address, check out our recording of last night’s event!
