Chair’s Comments
A huge thank you to all who were a part of the Fall Fundraising and Dinner. We had a good turnout on Oct. 6th to hear the inspirational messages of Josh Kaul, Beau Liegeois and Richard Sarnwick. They spoke about the issues they were most concerned about and encouraged those in attendance to volunteer.
The money raised from this effort will help pay for office expenses. We were fortunate to have a spacious office this campaign season even though the cost was more than prior years. We also contributed to the campaigns of Richard Sarnwick and Beau Liegeois.
We are all out of Tony Evers signs. If you have a good location and would like a sign, we have a stencil to make larger signs. Those who are interested in one of these signs and/or would like to help paint, please let us know.
Let’s get out the vote and encourage Democrats and Democratic leaning Independents to get to the polls!
