Tea Party gatherings planned in Baldwin | al.com: "Today is the tax filing deadline, but also a day for Tea Party rallies in Fairhope, Daphne and Orange Beach, according to organizers.

The events include speakers, music, petitions and other activities.

Participants will have a chance to hear from local and national speakers and discuss recent political issues, Bert Krages, one of the organizers of the Orange Beach rally, said. He said that while some Tea Party gatherings in other areas received national attention because of comments made about the race of some political figures, participants in the local rallies are being encouraged to focus on issues facing the country."
