It's Petition Season!

Hi Fellow Democrats,


In the past week, our DuPage Dems community organized protests to "Rage Against the Regime," provided shelter to Texas lawmakers and kicked off candidate petition season with a record number of Democratic candidates. Democrats are fighting back!


Join one of our two upcoming webinars on YouTube Live to learn what a Precinct Committeeperson (PC) does, why it's important, and how to become one: Thursday, August 14 | 7-8pm | Become a Democratic Precinct Committeeperson Thursday, August 21 | 6:30-7:30pm | We Want YOU! to Become a PC (co-hosted with the DuPage Young Democrats)


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.


Circulating petitions to get candidates on the ballot began on August 5 and goes through Nov 3. We're still in the process of gathering all the Democratic candidates' petitions, but fairly soon you can stop by our office to pick up petitions or sign for candidates. And our upcoming summer picnic is a perfect time to sign candidate petitions (RSVP for this free event below).


Finally, 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
