Summary: On Wednesday, 2012 Republican Presidential candidate Ron Paul drew an incredible 4,600-plus supporters and undecided voters to a massive town hall meeting in Illinois. The event was held at the University of Illinois in Champaign, IL. Due to a deluge of early RSVPs for Dr. Paul’s campus town hall meeting, the original university speaking venue of Foellinger Auditorium was switched to George Huff Hall, which was filled to capacity and then some. Event organizers noted that today’s balmy weather of about 80 degrees resulted in a hot temperatures inside the un-air conditioned Huff Hall, yet the crowd was as engaged to listen to Dr. Paul as ever. U.S. Rep. Tim Johnson (R-IL), who recently endorsed Ron Paul for the presidency, introduced the 12-term Congressman from Texas. The Uof I event was organized by ‘Youth for Ron Paul’ (YFP), an initiative of the Ron Paul 2012 Presidential campaign. Video coverage compliments of TheRevolutionPAC.
