The 2006 November Elections are right around the corner! Still lots to do and much to learn about your candidates.
Join us for a great morning and get to know your community.
Meeting Speaker: Sandra Puente, Director of Fundraising & Programs, Harris Co. Democratic Party.
Sandra will explain the jubilation of the Democrats to this week’s $1M. donation to the Chris Bell Campaign by Houston Attorney John O’Quinn.
She will also briefly discuss the City Charter Amendments, A to H [ I know…boring but important!]. The Mayor and
Council need these for public safety and infrastructure. Alas, there IS opposition from those eternal [infernal?] people who thrive on tax cuts at the expense of matching federal funds and mush needed public service!
We will have yard signs, campaign materials, and we will also have "talking points" on many of the issues so you can discuss intelligently and persuade your friends!.
Have you had enough? VOTE Democratic!!
This clever video [above] isn’t local but it sure expresses our opinions!
We are also hosts for the happy hour David Van Os Rally, next Wed. Oct 18 . so we need to prepare for that: balloons, signs etc.
Location: Chatters Restaurant, 140 S. Heights Blvd. (Just south of the intersection at Heights Blvd. and Washington)
