INTERNS PARTICIPATE AT THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION AS MEDIA LOGISTICS AND PRESS
The Weiner team also participated in the Democratic National Convention in August working with Media Logistics in the mornings and as press in the prime-time evening sessions. Weiner, Patricia Berg, and six RWA NPC interns helped staff the press briefing room and the general press working room at McCormick Place, expedited media access to various caucus council meetings and checked press credentials to cover the nightly speeches at the United Center. Weiner and Berg led the summer intern team, including Jonathan Person, Ashleigh Fields, Olivia Ardito, Kailynn Bannon, Catherine Walker, and Tomas Alves. RWA intern Tomas Alves published a piece recently detailing their experience, available on the National Press Club Wire. You can find it here:
For reference: The Weiner team wrote this article following the convention summarizing important sound bytes from the speeches and describing more details of the process, as a lesson for successful future conventions by both parties (Oped Ranked H2, #2 featured nationally, when published):

LONDON TIMES RADIO: WEINER SAID HARRIS COULD WIN WITH HALEY VOTES
On October 8th, Weiner was interviewed live on London Times Radio by host Andrew Neil, and producer/booker Elizabeth Highfield, concerning projections on Election 2024. In a debate with Republican overseas organizer Sarah Elliott, Weiner told Times Radio that Nikki Haley's 10-15% even after she withdrew could cause Harris to exceed projections of her current 3% national lead (NYT-Sienna poll) and razor-thin margins both ways in swing electoral college states, because the Haley voters may not tell pollsters who they are really for if they even answer. This would continue the Democrats winning every election since 2017 because of the "not Trump" overriding motivation, Weiner said. Listen to the interview here:
