The Nevada, S.C. and N.H. caucuses


John Edwards isn't just caucusing in Iowa tonight.

Volunteers and staffers for the Democratic presidential candidate will hold Caucus Night phone banks and parties in early primary states of New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada.

In Manchester, N.H., volunteers, supporters and staff will meet at the Edwards headquarters for a party to watch results come in.

In Edwards' "hometown" of Seneca, S.C., a party will be held at The Spot on the Alley sports bar and restaurant for supporters.

Three events will be held in Las Vegas, Reno and Elko, Nev., but oddly enough they sound like the most work and the least fun. Volunteers will be calling Iowans to encourage them to caucus.

That could be because Nevada, like Iowa, is a strong union state, or it could be simply because the events start at 4:30 p.m. Pacific Standard Time.

Then again, who doesn't party at 4:30 p.m. in Vegas?
