We have asked congressional candidate Scott Harper to help facilitate a discussion on UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE after the viewing of SICKO. Wednesday November 14th 7:00 in Glen Ellyn. Please RSVP here
(You may need to register with Democracy for America)

Thanks to everyone who hustled to get their PC petitions in this past week. Thanks to the energy that OTDB has brought to DuPage, we have almost two times the number of Committeemen and we'll keep adding more until the election in February and beyond.

Please keep a few things in mind as we move forward!
If you have turned in PC paperwork, it is now important to get your voters to the polls on the 5th of February.
Here's why:
1)Increased voter turn out heightens the Dem profile throughout the county and attracts more Dems who thought they were alone
2)Increased voter turn out helps elect our candidates on all levels
3)Increased voter turn out means YOU bring a higher weighted vote to the County Convention on FEBRUARY 18 and have a LARGER share of voice on how the Democratic Party of DuPage is run!

If you have NOT participated in round one but have decided you are ready to get involved, we will begin training people on how to get on the ballot in the next few weeks. Write to us here and let us know!

Many thanks to those who have answered our cry already!!
