Admission Plan Announced For Obama Speech at Invesco Field

By Jeralyn

Update: 2/3 of tickets will go to residents of Rocky Mountain States. 1/2 will go to residents of Colorado.

Final update: Go! Tickets available here, first come, first serve. More information available here. You must be able to show you have a place to stay since transportation and lodging is not being provided. They are encouraging Republicans and Independents to attend.

Volunteering is not required:

While volunteering is not a prerequisite for recipients, Coloradans who volunteer with the Campaign for Change will have the opportunity to receive all-star seating for Barack Obama’s speech.

Bump and Update: You can watch the press conference live here.

At 2:30 pm MT today, Colorado Governor Bill Ritter and officials from the DNCC will announce how tickets will be awarded for Sen. Barack Obama's nomination acceptance speech at Invesco Field. (No link, received by e-mail.)

They are calling the admission tickets "community credentials." That's because attendees will be expected to work for their ticket, as I wrote here.

There's a listen-only conference call line. I'll try to call in and report back.
