Happenings:
Watch
the speech with us!
Can’t
make it to
Denver
on Thursday August 28th to hear Barack Obama’s historic acceptance
speech at the Democratic National Convention? Instead, come watch him on
the giant screen at the Gaslight Tavern,
35 East Main Street
, Wellsboro, in the company of other enthusiastic Democrats and Obama fans,
co-sponsored by
Tioga
County
for Obama and PDEMs.
Pizza
and Beer begin at 8pm, with plenty of time to socialize before listening to
Obama’s speech scheduled for around
9pm
” said Emily Rizzo, PDEMs spokesperson.
Organize!
The
Tioga
County
for Obama Team will also have an organizational meeting on Thursday, August 21st,
at
6:30 pm
at the St. James Parish House,
18 St. James St.
,
Mansfield
,
PA.
To learn how you can get involved with the local campaign, plan on
attending this meeting.
The
Tioga
County
for Obama Mansfield office, which was open for one month before the April 22nd
primary, attracted forty volunteers who were busy making phone calls every
weeknight and spent the weekends going door to door. Team Coordinator Frank
Salatino said “There will be plenty of opportunities to volunteer for whatever
people feel is in their comfort zone. Not everyone wants to make calls or
pound the pavements, but we will need people to staff the office, enter data,
provide food and distribute yard signs.”
Contribute to Candidates
PDEMS takes no donations, and we function only as a social club.
Individuals are welcome to construct and submit fundraising pages for local
candidates, with all funds going directly to those candidates. Here is the
first submitted page, where you'll find most of the local candidates on one
