Frederick Democratic Party Meet-up  

The date of our meetup has been changed to correspond with the Democratic Party Organizing Kickoff on November 15. There will be a conference call with Howard Dean.

Also, we have a Toys for Tots collection box at Headquarters. If you could bring a new, unwrapped toy, that would be very kind. The need is particularly great this year due to the hurricanes.

From DNC website: 

On November 15th thousands of Democrats will experience our 50-state strategy up close and in person.

In many places there are vitally important elections in just a few weeks -- but we cannot afford to stop organizing and stop building after Election Day 2005. Next year’s elections will be a national referendum on the Republican culture of corruption in Washington and in the states, and we cannot wait until a few months before the election to get ready -- we need to start organizing right now.

Every one of us needs to take responsibility for the Democratic organization in our neighborhoods.

So on November 15th, ordinary Americans will open up their homes to their friends and neighbors for a night of planning and action. Hosts of National Organizing Kickoff meetings will have materials to run a briefing on our party-building efforts, the political landscape in your state and opportunities to take action locally.
