UPSET THE VOTE with Chili! . Greetings! Want the DIRECT chance to influence your local government in the next few days??   You CAN!! Here's how! (with Bonus Feature)   1) Make a big pot of chili tomorrow, Saturday or next Tuesday. THEN...   2) Make a few phone calls to your neighbors who you know would like to see more balanced government in DuPage (starting with your township/city or village). 70% of us don't even vote in Municipal elections so a small surge can make a big difference. We still lack balanced voices at the local level since all township office holders are still Republicans. 3) Load all Registered Democratic Voters you can coerce with your delicious chili into your car.  4) Go VOTE.  **If you want to go to early voting, it ends on Saturday click here for hours and locations. **Find your polling place  here by inputting your info and scrolling down to "Polling Location". Take your flash mob to vote on Tuesday the 9th between 6 am and 7 pm (chili is better during the latter half of those hours). BONUS: If you'd like to join us to celebrate (after chili, of course!) we will be gathering at the Rockwood Tap House around 8:30 pm on Tuesday night. We look forward to hearing your FLASH MOB VOTING TALES there!     Paid for by the Democratic Party of DuPage County.

Thank you, Dale. We miss you. . Greetings!   After making his last post here on the DPDC blog on Monday March 18th, Dale Bowling, the man responsible for truly revitalizing the DPDC blog with so many timely, intellectually stimulating and sensitive posts, took his life after a long period of depression. The sadness we feel for his family and for our Democratic family at the loss of this deeply insightful and caring person is not speakable. Please read his past blog pieces, feel his words and, if you would, take a moment to send gratitude to the Universe for the time he was here and healing to his friends and family as they move toward a different future than they had planned.    If you would like to read some of his past posts, here are links to a few.    Why We Need The Unions: My Dad's Story   The Middle Class and the Poor are Collateral Damage In the Republican War on Big Government What to expect when you're Sequestered   If you would like to do something in Dale's honor, his wife, Julia, has asked that donations be given to DPDC. In the very near future, we will be establishing a scholarship in Dale's name to which your donations will be applied. Please send your checks to: DPDC P.O.Box 185 Lombard IL 60148 and please write Bowling Fund in the memo.    Paid for by the Democratic Party of DuPage County.

Celebrate International Women's Day by RSVPing to our Open House

DPDC Women and Minority Outreach Committee Open House When Friday March 22, 2013 from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM CDT Add to Calendar   Where Democratic Party Office 1000-7 Rohlwing Rd Lombard, IL 60148 Driving Directions Greetings! At DPDC, we are committed to electing people who truly represent the citizens who live in DuPage County. Yes, this means women (our elected slate in 2012 included more than 50% women) and all people previously unrepresented in DuPage. At last count nearly 27% of our neighbors are part of a minority group and surely, as that number grows and our county's beautiful fabric diversifies, it is important to bring those voices into public service. If you are passionate about furthering this important democratic mission with us, please come (and bring a friend or two) to our OPEN HOUSE on Friday March 22nd. Light refreshments and great people await you. Register Now! I can't make it   Sincerely,   Sarbani Chowdhury, Chair WMOC Women and Minority Outreach Committee sarbani@msn.com 630-248-1203
