A reminder: a Democratic candidate for President of the United States will is visiting Perry for the second time today, as former Maryland Congressman John Delaney and the Perry Area Democrats host a gathering they’re calling “Caucus and Quesadillas.”

The meet and greet is free to attend, and it will be held at Casa De Oro from 3-4:30 p.m. This is Delaney’s second trip to Perry this year, as he previously held a town hall event in February at the Perry Perk Coffee Shop. Delaney was the first candidate to declare his intention to seek the Democratic Presidential nomination in the 2020 primary election, and is one of 19 individuals still in the running. He’s also one of 11 who has visited Dallas County this year, and will be one of three to have visited multiple times, joining Hawaii Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard, who has visited Perry and Adel, and California businessman Andrew Yang, who has been to Adel twice. Other candidates who have visited Dallas County include: former Texas Congressman Beto O’Rourke, Southbend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttegieg, and Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar, who each visited Adel; former San Antonio, Texas Mayor Julián Castro, Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, and Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren, who stopped in Perry; and New Jersey Senator Cory Booker, and California Senator Kamala Harris, who visited Waukee.
