Tracey Denton, Local Leader, with Howard Dean



This is Tracey Denton, a New York lawyer who went to work for the Dean candidacy in her spare time, founding
dean4nyc.org, which became what is now dfnyc.org, when Dean dropped out of the race after the Iowa caucuses, the night of which I addressed in a recent post(Dean Reconsiderd). Since the current aim of local Dean groups is to get all kinds of progressive candidates elected, Tracey recently helped hold a party for Norman Siegel, who is running for NYC Public Advocate. Along with Heather Woodfield, Ms. Denton runs the Democracy for New York City Meetups, the newsletter and the website:

Speaking of Norman Siegel, Sven and I were sitting in a dark corner at this party, mostly alone, when Norman came up to us
and asked us what we did. I was wondering if this was one of those guys who introduces himself to everyone at parties... but
suddenly it dawned on me that this was the candidate. We both like his record very much. [I don't know the man on the left.]
