Will @mattyb meet Marianne Williamson before: Inauguration Day (Jan 20, 2025) -or- she ends her campaign?

Question

✨☮️✨

Matt is on record as being a Marianne Superfan™, having donated to her campaign and even wearing clothing emblazoned with her name - and she's back in the race!

From her event page, it looks like Marianne will be in Matt's area in the coming days - will he take this opportunity to see and meet her? Will he find other opportunities to express his enthusiasm to her directly in the coming days/weeks/months?

Photo or video evidence would be preferred but I trust Matt's integrity and will take his word for it.

Resolves at whichever happens first:

Matt meets Marianne - yes

She drops out of the race/is not selected as the candidate (if she is the candidate but loses the election, the market remains open) - no

Inauguration Day - no

A meeting includes: shaking hands, getting a photo together, having a book (or other item) signed, etc. Matt doesn't need to have a conversation or introduce himself to her. If he finds himself in a scenario where a small number (~30?) of people are selected to be in close proximity to Marianne and she addresses them for a conversation even as a group, I will consider this a meeting for the purpose of this market.

A meeting is not an attended rally where he is simply in the crowd, or happens to make eye contact with her, she walks directly past him, etc.
