Obama camp holds weekend voter-registration drive in Missouri
Jo Mannies

In a new sign that the bipartisan presidential-campaign circus is heading back to Missouri, the campaign for Democratic frontrunner Barack Obama  announced today “that grassroots volunteers will hold Vote for Change kickoff events” on Saturday in Kansas City and St. Louis.  

Vote for Change is a 50-state voter registration and mobilization drive aimed at getting millions more Americans registered to vote and involved in the democratic process ahead of the November election,” the campaign said in a statement.

The drives begin at 10 a.m. and will be launched in St. Louis at the SEIU office,  5585 Pershing Ave. In Kansas City, the drive will be staged from  what the campaign called the “Former Obama for America office,  3911 Main Street.”

Most likely, won’t be “former” for long.
