Stand with Workers on Labor Day

Hi Fellow Democrats,


We hosted a virtual info session about becoming a Precinct Committeeperson (PC) last week with the DuPage Young Dems — here's the recording on YouTube live.


Did you know that 60% of precinct don't have a Democratic PC? We need you! If you're interested in becoming a PC, just reply to this email. PCs are elected volunteers who serve as the beating heart of our Party. Petition packets to run for PC are available here on the County website.

Stop by our BluePage HQ in Carol Stream anytime to sign candidate petitions. Or you can help circulate candidate petitions and get a list of doors in a precinct near you that doesn't have a PC. No prior training or past experience needed — we'll get you set up, and then you can knock doors anytime during the week around your schedule.


For those of you already circulating petitions, we have notaries at the BluePage HQ on many Sundays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 12-3pm, as well as Tuesday evenings from 5-8pm and Saturday mornings from 9am-12pm. Check the Notary Schedule for exact dates and times.


It costs $2,500 per month to keep our BluePage HQ open. You can help by chipping in $25 to make sure we can keep it open and continue the fight to elect Democrats both in DuPage County and across the country. Or become a member by contributing $50 annually or setting up a recurring monthly donation of $5. 


Thank you!

Reid McCollum, Chair
