Election Day...Mardi Gras...Together at Last

2008-01-29T08:40:00.000-08:00

Living Liberally invites you to practice party politics with food, comedy & election results with Super Fat Tuesday -- a Mardi Gras and Super Tuesday results watch party.

On Tuesday February 5th America learns the primary results for New York, California, and 22 additional states. And it's Mardi Gras. Progressive partiers and partisans will be celebrating around the country with like-minded, left-leaning, libation-lifting company.

These free events around the country take many forms: New Orleans-themed food from Eating Liberally; comedic commentary from Laughing Liberally; fundraisers for New Orleans reconstruction efforts; Victory/Concession Speech Bingo; State-by-State Betting Pools (with beads as prizes, of course); and the classic Drinking Liberally drinking games.

Why Super Fat Tuesday? Maybe it's our conviction that politics is celebratory and Election Days are holidays...or a reminder on a media-crazed day that an American city still needs our help...or a comment on the excesses of the campaign season...everyone finds their own 'super fat' reason to mark February 5th.

Super Fat Tuesday parties are also being hosted by partner groups: Democrats Work in Seattle and Forward Montana in Missoula...and the list is growing.

In New York City, join us at The Tank at 279 Church Street -- Tuesday Feb 5th from 7pm onward.
