Record Number of Democratic Candidates

Hi Fellow Democrats,

We have more Democratic candidates running for office across BluePage County than ever before! It's an amazing group of qualified, experienced, and caring Democrats who will fight for the economic well-being and rights of EVERY resident. Thanks to everyone who helped circulate and sign their petitions. 

Exciting news! The County Chairs Association (IDCCA) shared that DuPage collected more signatures for the statewide incumbents than any county in the state other than Cook — we truly have a powerhouse group of candidates, PCs, township Dem orgs and volunteers.

BECOME A PRECINCT COMMITTEEPERSON (PC):
It's not too late to become an elected Precinct Committeeperson! You have until Monday, Nov. 3 to circulate and submit your 10+ signatures and paperwork. 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. Here are the notary hours at the DPDC office. Just reply to this email and we'll help walk you through the easy process to become a PC.


In Solidarity,


Reid McCollum, Chair

And don't forget, you can find full details on all upcoming events right here:

Petition Season is a Wrap!

We have a record number of Democratic candidates this election season! Thank you to all the volunteers who signed, circulated, and notarized tens of thousands of petitions for Democratic candidates at every level: county, state, and national offices.
