Message from the Chair:

Most of us can’t remember an election year like this one in our lifetimes: whacko in its way and yet exciting in its prospects. Fireworks galore!

In the middle of July, the GOP meets in Cleveland to set off the Donald Rocket or help it fizzle out. A week after that, Dems will gather in Philadelphia. With the nomination 99% a done-deal, our goal is to hammer out a deal that lets us unite behind our candidates.

DAGR’s July celebration marks a brief lull before we dive back into furious activity in the fall. We’ll be renewing old friendships, having some fun, sharing ideas, and … filming more material for our GOTV video. It’s going to be a great event, with our own special brand of pyrotechnics! See you there! ~ K.L.
