Activists Cheer Sestak Who Visits to Say "Thank You"

Franklin County Democrats gave a warm welcome to their Senate Candidate Joe Sestak at a meeting at the Main Street Deli in Chambersburg at 8:30 am, Dec. 7. A good crowd of more than forty joined in a frank question and answer session about the candidate's campaign, his future plans, and the future for progressive ideas in Congress. Rep. Sestak said he had not made specific plans about any future campaigns but would stay in "public service." Rep. Sestak is visiting every county in Pennsylvania and left Chambersburg to attend a similar gathering in Fulton County.

Greencastle Democratic regulars staffed a booth at the town's Heritage Christmas celebration on Friday December 3 and collected contributions for the local food bank and the club, giving out free hot chocolate and cookies donated by members. There's another chance to join them and give visibility to the club on Friday, December 10. We are raffling off two ticket for a ride on the horse-drawn carriage on December 17 at 6:30 pm in return for contributions to the food bank.

DON'T FORGET OUR DECEMBER MEETING ON MONDAY, DECEMBER 11, 2010. GOOD PLACE TO PLAN YOUR POLITICAL RESOLUTIONS FOR 2011.

*****FINAL NOTE: While you're distributing your end of year contributions, consider a contribution to the GreencastleAntrim Democratic Club. You can bring it to the meeting.

Phone Bank Efforts Pay Off, Second Call-Out Scheduled

Thanks to the 13 folks who came out for the phone bank this evening. We made 319 calls & spoke with 90 voters. Twenty-five of the voters strongly support Joe Sestak and 19 are leaning towards him. Thirty-eight voters were undecided. Many voters did not know either candidate!

We're holding our second phone bank for Sestak and Onorato at the Gentle Laser Skin Care Center in Waynesboro, Monday 9/27/10 at 6:30pm. 1700 East Main St. (across from Burger King in Wayne Heights). There will be food and drink provided.

It's good to know that Chambersburg, Shippensburg, Greencastle and Waynesboro are all participating. Let's keep the United State Senate and the Governor's office Democratic! So much depends on it.
