WILTON MANORS – The organizers for the August 26 “Wilton Manors GET OUT THE VOTE Bar Crawl” have announced the featured gueststarring entertainment for the event, a community-wide effort to register as many LGBT voters as possible, and to draw awareness to issues of political importance to the gay community.

Local drag performers Nikki Adams, Nicolette, and Jersey Dion will lead a crowd through eight local watering holes, where, beginning at 2 p.m., volunteers, entertainers,, and the interested public will meet voter registrars and Democratic Party officials. The crawl will commence at Sidelines Sports Bar, and then move to Bill’s Filling Station, The Manor, Rosie’s Bar & Grill, New Moon, Matty’s On the Drive, The Alibi, and Boom. “This idea has taken off and you will see such an energized coalition of LGBT movers and shakers getting out the vote,” said Michael Albetta, Vice Chair of the Florida Democratic Party Campaign Committee.

Although set up as a pro-Obama re-election event, the organizers want all eligible voters and concerned citizens to participate. “Regardless of your party affiliation, it is your country’s given right as a citizen to make your voice heard,” said Jennifer Morales, Sidelines’ Marketing Director and one of the organizers, adding, “whatever, or whomever their choice may be.”
