The
Blue Wave is YOU!
By Maryann Vazquez
Have you ever wondered why there were more Republicans on
the ballot than Democrats in DuPage County? I wondered the first time I saw a
local ballot, and I have come to understand that it is engagement in that OTHER
party office on Curtiss that makes the difference. Republicans are relentless
in pursuing their interests and agenda. Democrats ... well, we often think we
can just chill after elections rather than staying engaged. We can not chill,
people! That is not working for us.
Democrats have to be active to save
our democracy even within the confines of Dupage County. Our organization has
to remain vital, vibrant, active and it has to grow. Supporting the DGTDO and its office needs to
be a priority for all of us who are concerned about the direction of this
country. Do you care or do you just talk about it? We have all seen what our collective
complacency has done to the nation, even the world.
Our office at 906 Curtiss is the heart of our Democratic
community. In order to build the
organization and attract like-minded individuals, we need this home in Downers
Grove Township, we need to support. It just can not happen without you. The
office is open Monday through Friday afternoon; if we had more volunteers we
could keep it open in the evenings. Volunteer!!! (Just DVR that show if you must watch it.)
Donations are needed for rent, supplies and utilities. You can support keeping
the office open for a full day with a donation of $40 a month. If that is not in your budget, try half a day
for $20 a month.
The primary is March 20th! We need you! We need people to
poll watchs. Phone bankers to get out the vote. Support your favored candidate
in getting out the vote. The Blue Tsunami is YOU!
Thank you to all the volunteers that keep the doors open for
those looking for a place to feel safe. Thank you to those who donate funds to
help keep the hearth warm. A special
note of gratitude to all of the leaders and Precinct Committeemen - you are the
foundation of our township organization!
We appreciate every step you take.
