Annual General Meeting and Leadership Elections: 2022 - Keep the momentum, our future is up to you!
posted by Gail Fagen | Deputy Chair Global IT Team
January 28, 2021In accordance with the Democrats Abroad Italy Bylaws, we will be holding our bi-annual elections for COUNTRY and CHAPTER officers at our Annual General Meeting (AGM) on March 14, 2021. The meeting will be held online.
We all have dreams for the future and here are some, beautifully expressed by our members.
But to make them come true we need to bolster our volunteer network in DA Italy, so we can get people to vote in state and mid-term elections and thus solidify the Biden-Harris administration and our Democratic Congress (!).
Let's not just dream but create a new reality. Your candidacy would be an enormous help!
