Edwards Eventful Numbers Spike
In mid June, the Edwards campaign announced the "Demand and be Heard" competition on Eventful.com.
The city with the most demands on the event planning website will receive a visit by the presidential contender. Back in June, the conventional wisdom was that a major city would easily win the Eventful challenge. However, the CW was wrong.
The power of the Net is at full display because of the ingenuity of Shawn Dixon from Columbus, Kentucky. While Edwards’s numbers on Eventful were growing they did not begin to dramatically increase until Dixon began rallying Edwards supporters in Kentucky. To date Columbus has 1793 people demanding Edwards bring his presidential campaign to their town. The competition ends tomorrow and if the results hold up the presidential candidate will be visiting the small Kentucky town relatively soon.
