Obama Campaign Press Release - Obama Campaign Announces Expansion of Nevada Organization Amid Growing Momentum in the Early States

Obama for American campaign to open three new offices in Nevada bringing total number to 10

Las Vegas, NV-- On a conference call with reporters this afternoon, David Plouffe, Obama's national

campaign manager, announced the opening of three additional offices in Nevada. The new campaign

offices in Henderson, Boulder City, and Winnemucca will bring the total number to ten across the

state, more than twice the number of offices of any other presidential candidate.

"This campaign's strength is based on our incredible volunteers," said Plouffe. "The new offices

will support the grassroots organization that we have built in every corner of Nevada and will allow

for supporters from many communities to take part in the campaign on the ground level."

Already up and running are regional offices in Carson City, Reno, Elko, Pahrump and three in Las

Vegas.

Plouffe also noted the growing momentum for Barack Obama in all four early nominating contests.

"The tightening of the race we are seeing in the early states reflects the strength of the Obama

campaign's grassroots organization and the growing momentum for Senator Obama's candidacy," said

Plouffe. "Our campaign's focus will remain on building the strongest precinct-level grassroots

organization in Nevada, reaching out to potential caucus-goers and getting them active in their

communities."
