DescriptionFor the third time in a decade, efforts are under way to bring the Democratic National Convention to Denver.

Dan Slater, first vice president of the state Democratic Party, and Denver City Councilwoman Elbra Wedgeworth are leading the charge this time around.

The two are scheduled to meet today with Mayor John Hickenlooper to get his approval to form a team that would put together a bid for 2008.

"It's my belief that the West is very fertile territory for Democrats in coming years and that the Democratic Party nationally needs to pay more attention to the needs of Democrats out West," Slater said Thursday.
