The upcoming virtual table read event of HBO’s Veep cast, joined by late-night host Stephen Colbert, is set to be a major fundraiser for the Democratic Party of Wisconsin on September 29.
The event will feature stars like Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Tony Hale, and others, as they revisit the episode Crate, where Vice President Selina Meyer learns she’s about to become president.
This type of virtual gathering has become a key fundraising tool for the Wisconsin Democrats, having raised millions in past elections with similar events.
Wisconsin, as a crucial battleground state, has seen its share of star-studded political support, including previous events with casts of The West Wing and The Princess Bride.
This event comes at a significant time, with new legislative maps potentially boosting Democratic voter turnout.
According to recent polling, Vice President Kamala Harris holds a narrow lead over former President Donald Trump in Wisconsin, adding to the state’s importance in the 2024 election.
Tickets for the event are available with any donation to the state Democratic Party.
