It's been a whirlwind two days for your club chair; so I am just now posting about our club's Thursday meeting. This time, there are three videorecordings to view. Here is the Zoom link to the first recording (passcode is C31t0!pS):

And (last but not least) the Zoom link to the third recording (the passcode is OKX^aZ*0):

Michael Woch attended as a representative of Jeremy Moss' campaign for the 11th Congressional District. We got a return visit from Elisabeth Dery (candidate for Probate Judge) as well as a visit from Marie and her offspring representing John Paul Torres' campaign for the 11th Congressional District. Crystal Brock from ONE Team also attended and gave a report on her canvassing activities.

As always, salient points from the meeting will be posted in the comments. Meanwhile, don't forget to vote (or sit out voting)! There are so many ways available now to cast your ballot (and, contrary to what some factions may claim, there is no way to vote more than twice in any election).

Good morning, fellow Democrats! And good news -- this Thursday (July 23) we are once again meeting at 215W (address is 215 W. 9 Mile Road in Ferndale), next door to Soho. The meeting starts at 7:00 PM.

Pizza will be provided; beverages (alcoholic and nonalcoholic) are available for purchase inside Soho.

There will be no club Bar Night on August 13, due to the increase in traffic that week leading up to (and including) the Woodward Dream Cruise.
