Mid Term Done

I didn't attend the watch party, but apparently a few did, and moved inside to more comfortable setting. Thanks to all of the exec committee and the MHQ volunteers for a successful campaign.

2024 Begun

Now for 2024.

MHQ Review

This was a pretty ambitious project, and I believe we were marginally successful, considering it was the first time trying this with member volunteers.

We need to do a photo shoot for our history, and CADEM has asked for on. We will publish a report on the experience and what we may plna for 2024.

Exec Committee elections - VP and Treasurer and 3 Members at large. We need to make sure we have a full Exec Committee slate by Jan 12 meeting.

I believe: Jim is bowing out, but Kayla and Steve will still be a members at large - so we need 1 more.

WHO ARE WE?

Should we become ACTIVISTS - like Newt's 'Contract on America' or 'Tea Party', or 'Indivisible'. At this point the Democratic Party, especially in Mendo, and in particular our club is pretty passive. Getting folks to register instead of getting folks to run for office. Doesn't make much difference if people vote, if the candidates do not support our progressive positions.

Local offices are critical to fill, but we've missed the opportunity to make sure we have candidates running. The GOP strategy has been VERY successful, and could turn Mendo Red if we are remain passive.

We need to be working on 2024 & 2026 now. Val has been pretty active in encouraging people to run and to educate potential candidate on how to run. We need to super charge Val.
