Growing Local Democrats: Executive Councilor to Speak at Potluck Fundraiser
 
The Upper Valley Democrats (UV Dems) are rising to the occasion of our growing need for public policy that ensures a good future for our local communities and New Hampshire.

This October- following three popular civics presentations by City Councilor/Grafton County Treasurer Karen Liot Hill- the UV Dems are excited to host a Potluck Fundraiser to celebrate and support such presentations, as well as local Democrats’ political campaigns and the growth of our Democratic community.

The Potluck Fundraiser’s guest speaker will be District 2 Executive Councilor Andru Volinsky, a progressive Democrat. Mr. Volinsky will describe his role advising the governor as a member of the Executive Council, and why the Executive Council matters to all New Hampshirites.

Support the UV Dems by joining us for the Potluck Fundraiser. Attendees bringing food please sign up for the potluck here, and be ready to take part in our raffle!

If you can’t attend, you can still make a donation to the UV Dems through our Act Blue account on line and/or or buy 5 raffle tickets online for $10 to win goodies from specialty baskets, an iPad tutorial to theater tickets and restaurant gift certificates. The more donations we get, the more we can help our local and state Democratic candidates prevail in the 2018 elections.
