A Message from Chairman Zach King
The 2022 campaign season is well underway. We concluded MCDC’s candidate designation process with our County Designating Convention in February, and our candidates have been petitioning since March 1. What does that mean? Until the end of the month, our candidates — with help from committee members and volunteers — are gathering signatures from Democratic voters to qualify to appear on the primary ballot in June (the photos above are from some of our petitioning events).
Our final petitioning push is this weekend. Please help put our designated candidates on the ballot by signing their petitions when someone knocks on your door OR help our candidates by carrying petitions and collecting signatures! Click here to view our designated candidates, and watch for more info about them in future newsletters, on our website, and on Facebook.
If you haven’t been contacted and would like to sign a petition or would like to volunteer — or if you have questions about this process — please contact our office: info@monroedemocrats.com or (585) 232-2410.
THANK YOU, as always, for your support of MCDC and of the democratic process!
