Wouldn't a Unified Democratic Congress be Great?

Hi, friends!

Let me put this thought in your heads: Wouldn’t a unified Democratic Congress working with a newly-elected Democratic President be just what this country needs. Think about all that could be accomplished with regard to so many important issues, like climate change, immigration, infrastructure, common sense gun restrictions, and so much more. Well, it is not beyond what is possible for for the Democrats to regain the majority in the Senate. Nate Silver’s FiveThirtyEight says that Democrats can flip the Seante. And read this article by Chris Cillizza from The Point on CNN Politics: https://www.cnn.com/2019/10/22/polit\ics/senate-democrats-republicans-2020/index.html

But we have to help this happen. We have to donate to political campaigns and to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee like never before. We have to make up for the incredible amount of money that GOP donors will be pouring into the fight for the Senate. Allow me to suggest that you start off by donating to the DSCC at the following address: https://www.dscc.org

Then, you can consider contributing to the campaigns of Mark Kelly in Arizona, John Hickenlooper in Colorado, Sara Gideon in Maine, Jaime Harrison (running against Lindsey Graham) in South Carolina, Theresa Greenfield in Iowa, AND Amy McGrath (running against Mitch McConnell) in Kentucky.

Let’s make this happen. Please share this post with everyone you know!

We had another great couple of days at the West Regional Courthouse. We collected 16 voter registration forms, and not a single person registered as a Republican! We also collected 3 requests to vote by mail and 119 petitions to amend the Florida Constitution to ban the sale of assault weapons in Florida! Many thanks to Michael Goldfarb, Beth Mumby, Debra Longberg, Norman Levy, Lucas, Robin Adell, Lauren Tate, Jeffrey Solomon, and Laurie Stark for being such wonderful volunteers and doing such a great job!

If you’d like to help out with voter registration, you can do so on almost any day of the week:

If you would like to help at the West Regional Courthouse on Thursdays, please text Lonnie Supnick at 954-895-3192 or email him at lonniesupnick@gmail.com.

The Plantation Democratic Club will have a booth at this weekend’s Art in the Park event in Plantation’s Liberty Tree Park. This is a great event for us to let the community know that we do exist and to help promote our voter registration and petition gathering efforts. John Ziegler has been coordinating volunteers for this effort. If you’d like to help out for a couple of hours on either Saturday or Sunday, please contact John at 954-232-3918 or johnjoeziegler@aol.com.

I will be back at the West Regional Courthouse on Monday and Wednesday, October 28th and 30th, from 10 AM until 2 PM. Let me know if you can join me.

On all if these days, we will be registering voters, allowing voters to sign up to vote by mail, and collecting petitions. As always, we will have a canopy to protect us from the sun and/or rain. We will also have a table and chairs to make our outdoor office as comfortable as possible. Please let us know when you can join us, and be sure to bring a cap and a bottle of water. We will have all the forms needed.
