Culinary Union Secretary-Treasurer Geoconda Arguello-Kline celebrated today’s news and declared, “Today is a historic day for us. […] We are very proud to host an early vote site right here in our neighborhood.” Beginning in 2008, Culinary fought and succeeded in securing day-of caucus sites on the Las Vegas Strip, so weekend shift casino workers can caucus.
Noting their unique role in turning out working-class voters, which typically means the margin of victory for Democratic candidates up and down the ballot, Arguello-Kline noted, “We understand the importance of voting. When we vote, we win.”
