December 7 Meet and Greet for Debjani Desai

Supporters of Judge Debjani Desai's countywide judicial campaign are planning a Meet and Greet for their candidate on Thursday, December 7, from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m., at Bárbaro Taqueria, 2525 W. North Avenue.

Strictly speaking, this is not a fundraiser. There's no ticket price. There aren't any sponsorship levels. There is not even a suggested minimum donation.

But there is an open bar and appetizers will be served. Since this is the Internet and the world is crazy, I hasten to point out that, while the bar will be open, and the apps free, the selection is, and should be, strictly limited. I know you probably understood that without my saying so, Dear Reader, but I see no harm in stressing the point.

Besides -- and I am sure you'd have worked this out for yourself in due course -- the Desai campaign is hoping that some of the persons interested in attending would also be interested in parting with a little of the long green in order to defray expenses. The invite asks that persons interested in attending to RSVP by emailing info@judgedesai.com... but it also asks those interested in joining the host committee to email info@judgedesai.com.

The invite also points out that donations can be made through the candidate's website. That's the subtle approach. But nuance is so often hard to discern on the Internet, so let me spell it out for you: The Desai campaign would be pleased an honored to take some of your discretionary income, even in conjunction with this free event.

But you already knew that.

I hope.
