2. Protect your yard signs
We're bound to see some Halloween mischief, especially this year when passions are running high. Since we've been losing many yard signs as we have in District 32 in broad daylight, we could have a real problem Halloween Night when the witches and goblins may be about. To avoid sign loss, please take your signs inside Tuesday morning Oct 31 and put them out again on Wednesday. This could save us a lot of lost political signs.


REMOVING OR DAMAGING POLITICAL SIGNS IS A CRIME. If you lose signs, please do report it to police, and ask for replacements.
(If you don't know who to contact, please email us -- democrats@pendem.org -- and we'll help.)

3. Take back our State on Election Day
 -
If you haven't already voted, do it now!  It's SO easy to do, and then you can have Election Day to do other things, such as:
  - Help a candidate with their Get Out The Vote effort
  - Be a driver for the GOTV effort
  - Be a runner for any number of candidates/issues
  - Bring food to any number of places to sustain the troops!
To volunteer:
- County-wide: gotv@pendem.org
- District 32: contact Terry Whiting: whitingt@hotmail.com
- Come to the training on Saturday 11/4 (see Calendar, above)
Questions: email ( gotv@pendem.org) or call (721-1636) the PenDems!

4. Executive Board Committeeman position open
The Pennington County Democratic Party will hold their next meeting on Thursday November 16, 6pm. The meeting will include an election to fill an open position for Executive Board Committeeman. If you are interested in nominating yourself or someone else for this position, contact Justin Lena ( kitwellena@rap.midco.net).
