1. Meeting Wednesday, Conference Call With Jim Dean
We will be having our monthly DFA meeting this Wednesday, November 5th, at 7pm at the Rockhill Bakehouse Cafe in downtown Glens Falls.
Come on down and celebrate (or commiserate) with us!
There will be a big conference call with DFA Chair Jim Dean. It's been a long time since we have had one of these, so that will be fun.
We will be planning the next couple of years, which will depend on the outcome.
The cafe is located at the corners of Elm and Exchange Streets, one block west of the Roundabout.
2. Glens Falls Mayor's Race: Look For Jack Diamond
An election reminder: since the withdrawal of Judy Villa-White, there is only one Democratic candidate for Mayor in Glens Falls-- Jack Diamond. However, remember, he is not on the Democratic line! Look down the machine for his independent line or vote for him on the Conservative Party line.
3. Supreme Court: Vote Only Once For Bob Muller
Also, remember, Bob Muller is the only Democrat running in a four way race for three seats on the State Supreme Court. It's like a game of musical chairs-- the top three get elected. So it is very important to only vote once-- for the sole Democrat, Robert Muller. You can vote for three, but if you do, mathematically you dilute your own vote for Bob. Give all your support to Bob Muller.
4. Crandall LIbrary Vote
Also on the ballot locally, but likely to be missed with all the other races, is the Crandall Library Budget. We have a magnificent new library! But now we need to staff it. Look up to the top of the machine for the propositions and vote for the Crandall Library. Sarah Palin will NOT thank you!
5. Russo On YouTube
Saratoga Springs DFA member and videographer Roger Wyatt has put up a YouTube video of State Senate candidate Mike Russo on YouTube, who is running in the 43rd SD. Mike is having a hard time getting his message out there, and this is a great way to do it. If you know anyone in the 43rd, which is Saratoga and Rensellear Counties, please forward it to them right away: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bS-DHRyE7Ng
6. Thanks
And a special thanks is due today. We held our last vigil for peace and to bring our troops home on Saturday. Special tribute is due to those who got them started, helped us keep them going and braved freezing cold and boiling heat for the last six years. It has been a privilege to be out there will you all.
See you all soon! Have a great day Election Day!
