ONLY 33 days until the end of the petition drive!! What you can do today!
WHAT YOU NEED TO DO NOW (Please)!!
MUST ATTEND PC TRAINING!!!!!
Precinct Committeeman Class of Oct 07 convenes
Oct 8th at the home of Amy Tauchman 567 Lowden Ave Glen Ellyn. If you
have not attended before, please make the time as it will enhance your
skills at every level. Call 834-1461 to say you are coming
- Please make sure that you have received all the info and materials you need to get the signatures in your precinct. Connie has sent email precinct kits to all of those who have email access and we think that's you. Write to her at bakerce@aol.com if you still need materials for your precinct.
- You will need 10 valid Dem signatures but get all 30 to have a cushion against any Republican shenanigans! More signatures means more people on your side and those people will help build the base that will truly TURN DUPAGE BLUE over the next few election cycles. Get signatures from registered Dems only, please, just to be safe.
- Pick a date in the next month to have a potluck or coffee to which you can invite the Dems in your precinct while you are gathering their signatures. Connie has sent the templates for these to everyone. Contact us if you haven't gotten these.INVITE CANDIDATES TO ATTEND!
- Then take an hour or two a week for the next couple of weeks to carry around your petition, ask for signatures and let people see what the only other Democrat on their block looks like! The people who RSVP/show up to your event are your core team and will become your friends and the people you reach for to help cover their part of the precinct. Remember, these people will be happy to see you!
