We strongly urge all Democrats to vote early. It lets us focus our get-out-the-vote efforts in November and this makes us more effective.
Our coordinated campaign office has just recently strengthened our
staff adding Nancy Porter, and Maureen Donnelly for office management
and volunteer coordinating, Here is a message from Nancy:
New! New! New!
New for DEMS, new for YOU!
We have a great new office at 36 Sturgis Corner Drive and if you haven’t seen it, then it ‘s way past time to stop by! Say “hello” to Doug or Mandy or Meredith or Katie or Matt or Maureen. Say hello to all of our hard working staff then greet and meet and be a VOLUNTEER.
We need you, we want you in ways too numerous to mention. We need cooks, bakers, phone callers, data entry, computer smart, doorknockers., parade walkers, fundraiser attendees, writers (letters to the editor) , signatures (petitions, letters). If you don’t like the before mentioned, we always need gofers (folks to bring in water and diet drinks or take out signs), cleaner uppers, word spreaders (tell everyone the Dem Headquarters is the place to meet!) Don’t be shy, be part of the continuous transition to support the priorities you have and the candidates who support your goals and ambitions for a better world.
If you don’t like what you’ve read, then come help us change for a better beginning to our collaborative world of the Dems in Iowa, Johnson and Linn counties.
