Here we are at fewer than a hundred days until Election Day, a day when the fate of our state and our nation will be determined. I don't have to remind you about the presidential race, but, closer to home, we are determined that November will return the state senate to the Democrats, and protect Mainers from the depredation caused by the so-called conservatives.

Our volunteers in Kennebec County are hard at work in both Augusta and Waterville, making phone calls, entering data, and doing the many other tasks at hand. Yes, I know it's summer, but November looms on the horizon, and we will not win without your help.

We have a good supply of Hillary Clinton stickers ready to decorate the bumpers of your vehicles. The cost of the stickers is $2.00 each (bringing exact change would be appreciated) and they are available at the Maine Democratic Party office, third floor, 320 Water Street in Augusta. We have ordered in Hillary Clinton yard signs as well, and they will come complete with wickets at $5.00 each. I expect them to be at the party office shortly.

If you can spare a few hours to help make phone calls, please let me know. If not, we truly need donations, large or small. Please do what you can by logging into our secure Act Blue site: https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/kennebecdems. You will have the opportunity to give a one-time donation, or a regular smaller monthly donation.

            Our future is truly in your hands. Get out and volunteer, and you will bring about real change; stay home and you will not.

As always, we need your time and your money. To volunteer your time, just contact me, To do donate money through our secure Act Blue site, go to Act Blue at: https://secure.actblue.com/page/kennebecdems. 

The most convenient way is through a smaller monthly donation through a credit card; $20 a month is just about the cost of a large pizza and soda, but it will provide the support our volunteers need so very much.
