EditorSign up to volunteer with the Portland Democrats here!
The Portland Democrats have 3 exciting events coming up in the next two weeks – make sure to RSVP today!
First, we are excited to announce that Secretary of State Matt Dunlap will be joining us at our next general meeting, on Thursday, June 11 at 6:30 PM. This event will be happening virtually via Zoom and there will be a call-in option. Join us to learn about COVID’s impact on our upcoming elections, and ask Secretary Dunlap any questions you have about voting and protecting our democracy. You can RSVP for the meeting and submit questions here.
Second, the Portland Dems are midway through our series of town halls with Democratic candidates running in competitive legislative primaries this July. Tuesday, June 2 at 6pm, we will be hearing from the Democrats running in HD-41, which includes Deering Center, Deering Highlands, Woodfords, Oakdale, and Rosemont neighborhoods. The candidates in this race are Laurie Davis, Ben Grant, and Sam Zager, and the town hall will be moderated by Rep. Erik Jorgensen. RSVP here.
Next Wednesday, June 10, at 6pm, we will be hearing from the Democrats running in HD-38, which includes the West End and St. John Valley. The candidates in this race are Michael Flaherty, Charles Skold, and Barb Wood, and the town hall will be moderated by Katie Walsh. RSVP here.
