Music Suggestions to Help the Terminally Unhip
We need help from someone far hipper than we are. We are putting together a CD of music to play at the election night victory party.
One Last Fundraiser
We are having one last major fundraiser to gather the money needed for some first-class Get Out The Vote doorhangers.
We need some additional funds to purchase these and get them to our Neighborhood Organizers to use for blockwalking. We will also be putting them out in heavily Democratic precincts.
Your help could turn the tide for Democrats in Fort Bend County, and across Texas!
We decided to have a different kind of fundraiser - no speeches or grandstanding, just good food and live music. We will also have some outstanding door prizes - including a framed rally sign certified as being used on the convention floor in Denver. What a legacy to hand down to your grandchildren! With attendance limited to 100 people, your odds of winning a doorprize is good.
We will also have one-of-a-kind auction items for you to bid on.
Please click Read more to get specific information and pictures of the auction items.
Convention Night at the Headquarters
Okay, I admit it. I spent more time watching the tv than taking pictures.
We munched on hot dogs and apple pie at both Fort Bend Democrats headquarters while watching Obama make the greatest convention speech in history.
You can find more pictures here of the early crowd. Sorry I didn't take many once everyone got there. I'll try harder next time! Blockwalking starts tomorrow and our Kickoff event is on Sunday Afternoon. It's a great time to be a Democrat!
