That will wrap up Eric's lengthy stream of advice.

I would generally prefer to wait until it is more clear that no-one has any unfinished business to attend to, but if the strong consensus is for tonight, that can be done. Tomorrow night would, nearly certainly, be the latest time.

Vilseck the most, but he's not in Congress. Jared. Stacey's less enthusiastic but there's something.

Is Jared currently in some meeting or because of something else can't attend one? ( I kinda don't want to wait an IRL week to have a meeting with Alozia's char, plus, Jared is the DCCC Chair )

Rephrase that?

I think I gave some meeting suggestions earlier. He can definitely meet with Jared, though starting off with him does mean that the dynamics are gonna be a little different, which should still be fine

She should definitely meet w/Jared at some point for running as a Dem in IL

Maybe a state committee guy for the slice, then a talking meet?

The IL Dem Party chairman. I’m planning a post where Mayfield is meeting with him, chats with him, and then leaves to eat food and ponder. It incorporarates her attempt to build her campaign and gain support and expand her character personally.

Yeah that’s what I also want to do, so sounds good. I want to have Mayfield build a basis for a campaign before actually launching one.

Emby didn't really do anything wrong in the meeting, I just don't think they were getting anywhere, Bello's basically got no connection at all to Appalachia, was a little bit of a strange choice. It could've worked out if he spread out the bill to more of Carolina or broader, but that wasn't the point, makes sense to just end up parting w/o any common ground to work on
