Valley couple headed to Democratic convention

A valley couple is getting ready to leave Wednesday morning for the Democratic National Convention.

She is a delegate for Hillary Clinton. And he is a volunteer.

This will be the second national convention for Doug and Estella Kessler. Doug is the regional chairman for the Democratic party. They’ve been working hard for months, campaigning for Hillary Clinton. And they are eager to see her get her party’s nomination.

“I’ve been Hillary Clinton since 2008,” Estella Kessler said.

Estella is excited to see her candidate at the top of the Democratic party’s presidential ticket. She helped plan Hillary Clinton’s campaign stop in Fresno. Estella is a pledged delegate for Clinton.

“Having Hillary Clinton is something else. Congresswoman Maxine Waters probably said it best: take your pencils, take your cameras, take your phones, take pictures, write this down for your grandchildren because we are going to make history,” Estella said.

Estella and her husband, Doug, attended the last Democratic National Convention in 2012 when President Obama was up for re-election. For the full article click here
