Valerie Jarrett to Local Democrats: 'I'd Bet on You'

The senior adviser to President Barack Obama swings by Democratic club office on the Third Street Promenade.

Valerie Jarrett, a senior adviser to President Barack Obama, fired up local Democrats Friday during a stop at the newly-minted Organizing for America Westside office on the Third Street Promenade.

My purpose is simply to say thank you. We know that this campaign is going to turn on turnout, and that's going to happen because of the work that you are doing. We are never going to be able to raise the kind of money the other side is doing... but if I had to bet on that versus you, I'd bet on you

It was Jarrett's final stop in a three-campaign-office tour across Los Angeles.

Volunteers spent the day phoning battleground states on behalf of Obama and to talk about the propositions endorsed or opposed by the Pacific Palisades Democratic Club, which shares the Promenade office.
