This month we'll be holding our endorsement meeting! We're inviting the candidates to come and speak briefly, and will also be handing out the responses we receive to our Candidate questionnaires, to assist our members in deciding which candidates should receive the DFH endorsement. Per the eligibility criteria we decided on last year, in order to be eligible to vote on endorsements, a member must have attended (and signed in at) at least 3 DFH events (monthly meetings, movie nights, etc.) between January 1 and June 30, 2006. We will be contacting all eligible voting members prior to the meeting, and will also have a roster available for review. Even if you are not eligible to vote, however, this should still be an interesting meeting to attend!
Also, please remember that we are transitioning from Meetup.com to a new organizing tool provided by Democracy for America, DFAlink. If you haven't already done so, please "join" our group by registering at http://www.dfalink.com/howardcounty, to be sure that you don't miss out on any info when we stop using Meetup's site. Please do not be alarmed if/when you receive an email saying that Dawn Popp has stepped down as Meetup organizer -- this simply means that we are no longer using the Meetup site and all future communication will be through DFALink.
As always, we'll be serving pizza and beverages at our meeting, and should have various handouts, so RSVPs are greatly appreciated to help us plan! Thanks!
Democracy for Howard County will meet at the Elkridge Library at 7:00 PM (6540 Washington Blvd., Elkridge). RSVP at DFALink.com.
