Louisville, KY – Just a week after Tea Party supporter Rand Paul claimed the GOP primary victory, the Coffee Party has named Louisville the site for its first national convention. Organizers of the Coffee Party, formed last year as an alternative to the Tea Party, say they expect up to 2,000 people to show up for the September event. Brian Endicott, a 30-year-old Lexington graphic designer chairs the Kentucky chapter of the Coffee Party. He says the group chose Louisville before last week's primary. But Endicott says Paul's victory in the U.S. Senate primary will hopefully provide a boost in membership for the Coffee Party.
