On Tuesday, September 30th, Clay Aiken was the guest of honor at a reception/fundraiser at the home of Michael Corbett in the Hollywood Hills.
There were about 75 people in attendance and the crowd was enthusiastic and excited to help and support Clay and his campaign.
Clay tried to talk to each person and give them a personal moment of his time. According to those who were lucky enough to be at the event, Clay gave an excellent speech which included why he was running, why he felt comfortable asking for support in California, and how important it was to raise as much as possible before midnight.
There was a video crew at the event that talked and taped Clay towards the end of the event. They were from the TV show, Extra. Perhaps we will see Clay on the show in the next few days.
The following are a few of tweets from the evening:

I spent tonight at a party with Clay Aiken and Bruce Vilanch. There’s no joke here, I just feel I should tell somebody.

I am glad that people in all parts of the country realize that having an independent thinker like Clay will help them all. I think OMC is just what the US needs!
