A sponsored guest piece from Marianne Williamson’s campaign.
Presidential candidate and best-selling author Marianne Williamson will return to Iowa for five days of campaign events over the next two weeks. These will be her third and fourth visits to the state since declaring her candidacy.
These next two trips will focus on the Central Iowa and Fairfield areas of the state. There will be two college campus visits, along with a meeting with the Asian & Latino Coalition.
Williamson’s most recent Iowa visit was covered by Buzzfeed Politics. Read their full story here. An excerpt:
Buzzfeed: “Here in the 21st century, though, Williamson campaigns for president in small rooms, private spaces in the back of restaurants, comfortable house parties in living rooms, at the end of 14-hour days…Williamson is someone who treats a small room with the same close attention as a large one…Williamson’s language feels pleasantly grounded by experience. This less political, more spiritual aside was more in line with what I’d come to Iowa to see…These things Marianne Williamson has advocated over the years — to forgive others, to love others, to believe in the dignity of your existence — can only be laughed at if you’re not taking your own life seriously. There are worse things to sell.”

I believe all of Marianne Williamson’s April 3 campaign events in Iowa are cancelled. The Poweshiek Democrats were going to host her in Grinnell on April 3, but her campaign informed us that they are canceling Iowa events that day since Williamson is going to be in New York City to be on the “Morning Joe” television program.
