On Saturday, March 23 — by one account, the rainiest March day on record — Precinct 3 Democrats gathered at the New Kent Apartments party room to hear from local Democratic officials and talk about plans for the upcoming election. We heard from State Representative Chris Pielli and East Goshen Supervisor Barbara Emery; we got to know one another while working on the Precinct 3 Civics Trivia Game, and we learned about opportunities to get involved from emeritus Supervisor David Shuey. The warmth of everyone in the room overcame the harsh weather outside, and by the time the meeting ended, the rain had stopped!

The East Goshen Democrats hosted a petition party at Hershey’s Mill on Saturday, February 3. Turnout was high, enthusiasm was strong, and our eight endorsed candidates for Federal and State public office, plus seven delegates to the Democratic National Convention, all came away with lots of signatures to help assure their places on the primary election ballot. … Speaking of which, don’t forget to vote on April 23, or apply early for your mail ballot.
