Precinct Meeting & Obama Unity Potluck


My Co-Precinct Committee Person, Anne Murdouogh, and I held a "Unite for Change" potluck dinner and campaign planning meeting tonight. Thanks to Anne (pictured far right) and her husband JB for loaning us their beautiful home for the evening! The food was absolutely delicious, and the company couldn't have been better! We had 40 enthusiastic Democrats (along with a few unaffiliateds and maybe even a Republican :-) there to talk about how we are going to win this election for Barack Obama and all our Democratic candidates down the ballot.


Noah Glusenkamp from the Obama Campaign, and Rachael Outman from the coordinated campaign both shared their thoughts about the campaign, emphasizing they wanted to get to know us and learn what had been successful in the past. It was very refreshing! We also had all three Democratic candidates for State Representative for House District 6 speak to the group--Liz Adams, Lois Court, and Josh Hanfling.


Most importantly, we talked about how we needed everyone to pitch in with canvassing, voter registration (we even registered a couple people tonight!), GOTV, and various other tasks between now and November. I think almost everyone signed up to help.


We will be doing a canvass in Precinct 639 Saturday July 12th. Watch here for more details on that later.
