Today I canvassed my precinct and a couple other areas with

Amy Davis, Democratic candidate for state rep for the 90th District.

We live in a red district, but we will fight to elect Democrats.

We also distributed literature for David Simpson, who is running for the Illinois State Senate in our district. It is the 45th District.

I hope DU members are getting out and working for our local, state and federal candidates. Even some of my very loyal Democratic neighbors did not know about our candidates. We will be back again in a couple of weeks to find more voters. GOTV, at all levels. Please!

I hope other DU members, like you, know how important it is to do all this at the grassroots level. There won't be any blue wave without this work.
