This is an excellent training program and if you are interested in helping out on any of the local campaigns (Bill Durston for Congress, Warren Harding for Board of Supervisors, Alyson Huber for Assembly, etc...) then I highly suggest that you attend this training. Even if you were able to attend the training in Sacramento last year, attending this one in Berkeley will sharpen your skills and most likely teach you something new. I go every year, and I always learn a new trick or two. There will be a few Durston campaign volunteers attending this training and Dr. Durston will attend the Saturday training as well. This training is perfect for those new to volunteering for campaigns as well as campaign veterans that want to learn the latest techniques to help get their candidate elected.
