You’ve seen the headlines.
Voters are turned off by the country’s drama-filled politics.
Dems might not be keen about Biden as their 2024 presidential candidate.
Kamala Harris is worried about low voter turnout in the Black community.
What’s a Democrat to do in the face of all this news?
Fire up the base, that’s what! And it’s not too soon to start.
In fact, one of last month’s speakers, FL State Rep Anna Eskamani, showed us what she does in order to win over voters long before an election happens—create problem-solving events in off-years to keep our names out there, champion economic issues, connect to the common good. But how?
That’s what this month’s meeting is all about. What will it take to fire up the base in your neck of the woods? Has your group held a fire-up-the-base event, or are you planning one? We’ll hear from several group leaders who either have experience holding fire-up events or are planning one, but most of all, we want to learn from your experience!
We all know how bright red most of rural Illinois is, but as State Treasurer Mike Frerichs once told us, there are plenty of Democrats in rural Illinois—they just don’t realize it yet. It’s up to us to help them realize it and get them to vote Democratic in 2024.
So, join us September 7, 7:30pm on Zoom to learn from each other about what works and how to do it right!
