Chelsea Clinton to hold forum at EKU


Former first daughter Chelsea Clinton will return to Kentucky on Thursday to campaign for her mother, Democratic presidential candidate U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Chelsea Clinton will conduct a forum about the economy at Eastern Kentucky University at 1:15 p.m. The event, called "Our Economy Our Future," will take place at the Powell Student Center and is open to the public.

She will then be on hand at the 3:30 p.m. opening of the Clinton campaign's Frankfort field office at 340-1 Democrat Drive -- just down the street from the Kentucky Democratic Party headquarters.

Thursday will mark Chelsea Clinton's third trip to Kentucky in the last month. She campaigned in Lexington and Louisville in April before attending the Derby last weekend, where she met with state Democratic officials and took hundreds of photos with Derby-goers, said state Party Chairman Jennifer Moore.
