Meet and Greet

From now until election day on November third Joe Brown invites people to his home for a meet and greet.

The candidate for Clinton County Treasurer owns and lives in the historic IOOF building at 2319 Roosevelt Street in Clinton that holds the office of the Clinton County Democratic party currently.

"I'll open up the building from 10 o'clock in the morning until six in the afternoon. I encourage people to come in and sit. If they want a cup of coffee or water, tea or what ever."

Brown was inspired by the campaigns of presidents James Garfield and William McKinley in the 1890's.

"Instead of them going out and going door-to-door like many people do today they decided to do their campaigns from home.

"The purpose of the meet and greet is to simply say, 'Can you just come in a talk?' We have to start communicating with each other."
