Happy Thanksgiving from Missaukee County (Michigan) :)

Written by: Richard Renner on Nov 26, 2008 7:30 PM EST

To all my friends at Democracy for America,

May your Thanksgiving be filled with Love, Faith and Laughter.

Best wishes,

Richard Renner

Missaukee County Commissioner-elect

Membership Chair, Missaukee County Democratic Party

“Strange is our situation here upon earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to a divine purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: That we are here for the sake of others...for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by a bond of sympathy. Many times a day, I realize how much my outer and inner life is built upon the labors of people, both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received.”

- Albert Einstein

CHALLENGE: ONLY 3 DAYS LEFT to raise $380! Help the only Democratic County Commissioner in Missaukee County (Michigan).

On Tuesday, November 4th, history was made in Missaukee County. I was fortunate enough to defeat a Republican incumbent for County Commissioner in the second most Republican county in the state of Michigan. However, as with many campaigns, I have debt to pay off, and several final expenses to pay. I need to raise $380 in 3 days. Can I count on you? Making a contribution is easier than ever.

OFFICIALLY ENDORSED BY MID-MICHIGAN DEMOCRACY FOR AMERICA (MMDfA)!
“Richard REALLY knows his stuff and has specific plans for improving his county.”

As I was quoted in our local daily, the Cadillac News, following my victory...

"The voters...have made a determination that the status quo is no longer acceptable, that we expect more accountability, greater openness, and transparency in county government."

Please, help me pay off my debt by raising $380 in 3 days. Just click on the link below, and make a secure, online contribution using PayPal...

Victory '10,

Richard Renner

Missaukee County Commissioner-elect

Thank you to so many of the Monmouth for Democracy DFA/PDA members who came out to phone bank, walk door to door and supported this race. I won in a landslide 2505 to 1703. (provisional ballots are not yet tabulated) Juanita and I unseated an incumbent GOPer who ran for her 3rd time in as many years. Thanks to the Training Academy and Night School, we out maneuvered them and ran a good positive campaign. I'd liek to thank our neighbors too for their support. Middlesex for Democracy sent us Kim and Karina and Ocean County DFA/PDA endorsed us and lent support. We are grateful.

It is time for us all to pat ourselves on the back for fighting to take America back. Governor Dean, I know is proud of all of us for carrying his 2004 message forward til now.

Thanks a million!

In the age of technology it is advantageous for every Democratic Organization to have a website.

It helps keeps members informed, it can help bring in new members, as well as keeping others informed of functions, fund raisers, meetings, campaigns.

I can help you with this.

Being I have been involved in politics for over 22 years, I understand the needs of an organization and campaigns. My dad was the Democratic Mayor of Manville for 16 years.

Grassroots change starts at the bottom. We need ot be informed voters and make sure the candidates we're voting into local office (the offices that affect us most directly) share the progressive values we champion.

When you get to the voting booth on November 4, will you know which State Representatives, School Board Members, State Auditors, Dog-catchers shere your values. Will you even know their names?

Growvotes.org is trying to close this gap in voter ignorance through the same social networking tactics that have helped communities like DFA. Come check us out, find out who's running in your local elections and help us build a community based around the local politics that get things done close to home. Write an inactive candidate and ask them to share their views with the community. Create a ballot for election day so you know beforehand who'll you'll vote for.

We're focusing our beta efforts on New Jersey and Maryland and are looking for local associates who can help us add candidates that are not lsited yet. Espcially those at the city and county level. For more information contact us:

We are in the home stretch now. The DNC convention is under way and people are excited about change. Our campaign is gearing up to contact every voter in Red Bank to let them know what Progressive Grassroots activism is about.

Can you spend Wednesday evenings with our Campaign coordinator and make 40 phone calls each week?

If so, please email Vin at campaign@redbankdems.com to volunteer.

Thanks!
