I think it’s almost safe to say the high energy and rapidly building momentum for Vice-President Kamala Harris to become our first Madame President is palpable! The first week alone, after this historic announcement, saw hundreds of thousands of new voters being registered, millions of small donor donations sent to her campaign and more volunteers turning out to phone bank, write letters and post cards to voters across the country and signing up for old fashioned door knocking!
High energy and palpable indeed!
This brings me to an upcoming event that will take place on Saturday, August 10th from 12:30-1:30 on Keene’s Central Square. This “visibility” event is being sponsored by the Cheshire County Democrats to help get Kamala Harris elected on November 5th. Bring your own handmade signs, bring along your family and friends but most of all bring your enthusiasm for what is certainly history taking place in front of all of us! While there, say hello to other candidates who are running for local elected positions, sign up for phone banking and/or door knocking!
To get you in the right frame of mind, there will be a sign making event held on Thursday, August 8th at the "Organize NH" Keene Regional Office beginning at 5:30. Their office is located at 17 Church St. and all sign making supplies will be provided. The parking lot is located off the first left on Railroad St. Park in a spot labeled for 9 Church St. or a spot with no sign. To get to the entrance, walk through the alley between Railroad St. and Church St. Turn left, the entrance is located under a large 9 sign. Parking on Main St. and Railroad St. is free after 5 PM and on Sundays. There is no street parking on Church St. Here is a sign up link which also includes a map.
Want to do more? There is phone banking from 5-7 pm every Wednesday until the election. Sign up here.
There is canvassing beginning at 10:00 am on Saturdays and 12:00 pm on Sundays until the election, with multiple shifts per day. Sign up here.
Hey, let’s go do this because “Yes, we Kam!”
