Summer Picnic and More Events

The end of summer is packed with opportunities to help

Hi DuPage Dem, Our summer picnic is this Sunday, August 9th. The picnic is free, but please RSVP so we know how many people to expect. Governor Pritzker's running mate, Christian Mitchell will speak, along with many candidates and elected officials. In addition to great food and speakers, we'll have activities for kids run by our fantastic interns as well as a Young Dems meetup. Let’s eat, connect, and make a difference — see you there! We're very grateful to our three picnic sponsors for covering the cost of all the food and supplies: Melissa Bean for Congress, Senate President Don Harmon, and Senator Suzy Glowiak Hilton. We're also deeply grateful to the many volunteers helping to prepare and executive this fantastic community event. Picnic RSVP Our amazing summer interns have knocked on thousands of doors so far for our DuPage candidates! Please sign up to join them on Saturdays at 10:30 a.m. and Sundays at 12:00 p.m. from Carol Stream. There are also many other opportunities to knock doors below. One of our great interns wrote this inspiring article about knocking doors — please give it a read: "Why Canvassing is Important Before the 2026 Midterm Elections" by Grace Ramsey. So far volunteers have signed up to write more than 12,000 postcards to Democratic leaning voters across DuPage County to encourage them to vote in the November 3 midterm elections! You can either pick them up at one of thee three Democratic offices in DuPage or we'll deliver them to you. You'll need to provide the postcard stamps, which now cost $0.65. You'll have until October 21 to write one of the message options and address them using the voter list we provide. You can sign up for as few as 25 postcards. Thank you!
