Dear All,
Claudia took 25 petitions to the County Elections Office today. Some were
not completely filled out, so we can expect anywhere from 200-250 (or more)
verified signatures, which is amazing. The 25 petitions didn't include the
ones from our mid-day volunteers, Judy, or myself. Overall, I think we
were quite successful at the library. I have a few other shifts scheduled
at the library; when we meet, we'll look at scheduling additional times
throughout the week in addition to Saturday. Well done!
I would like to schedule a meeting *this* *Thursday* or *Friday, *at *6:30
p.m.* My preference is for Friday, but I will go with the majority on
this. *Please respond as soon as possible* so I can notify everyone. The
following meeting will be on *Monday, February 26, *at 6:30 p.m. For now,
plan on it being at my house, but this may change, and I will update as
soon as I can.
Here are a list of upcoming events that we need to discuss at our next
meeting.
- As most of you probably know, our representatives from District 33
will be here on *this Saturday* for a Town Hall meeting at the library.
This is scheduled from 4:30-5:30. I have scheduled 1.5 hour shifts before
and after the event to get people at the library as they are coming or
going for the Town Hall. It is now listed in Signup.com
- *Thursday, February 22 *- A small team will go to St. Anthony to
present to the Fremont County Democrats about what we have done as a team
and give them information for how they can get started collecting
signatures in their area. Ann Schenk may step up to be the county team
leader. Annette is driving, and so far Todd is going and possibly
Claudia. (Claudia, I can't remember if you confirmed this.) We will
discuss the plans for this at the meeting later this week.
- *Saturday, February 24* - Zach and the Medicaid Van will be here for a
big canvassing push beginning at The Villa and ending at Tap-N-Fill. The
state team was phone banked on Saturday to organize volunteers, and I hope
to have information from Zach before we meet on Thursday or Friday.
- *Tuesday, March 13* - We will plan multiple volunteers at the polling
places at the School District 93 precincts. One positive of this is that
the majority of District 93 voters are in Legislative District 30 (or
District 34 if we send people to Iona or Ucon). I will confirm with Zach,
but I think we might be able to get statewide phone banking support on this
as well.
See you this week!
Leslie Smith
