Discussions
Karen Sterk interviewed Pat Kelly about the Democratic National Convention held in Chicago. Patrick was an Iowa Delegate at the convention and spoke about his takeaway from the week spent with other delegates. He gave a well-informed summary. Important to raise money and get the public registered to vote.
Karen Sterk informed the group that a number of members met and addressed and sent postcards to Dickinson County democrat residents who had not voted in the last election for Ryan Melton support. In September they will receive phone calls to impress upon them to have a plan on how they are going to vote. This next step could include texting. Will have talking points!
A voter outreach meeting is scheduled for Sept. 23rd for those interested in helping with this. Meeting place TBD. Rich N had helpful input about this and also the process to obtain Harris/Walz signs.
Tim Fairchild spoke on his bid for District 5 County Supervisor. Jeff Thee (fellow supervisor) also spoke briefly.
