First, some housekeeping:
- Endorsements: The OCDP Endorsement and Screening Committee and Executive Committee approved endorsements for the August Primary Election. Candidates are listed on ocdp.org, and at the bottom of this email!
- ONE Campaign: This week marks 100 days from the November Election! The ONE Campaign, MDP’s coordinated campaign, is celebrating by hosting several events (listed below) to get to know their organizers in Oakland County, as well as a HUGE “100 Days Out Weekend of Action!” Find out more HERE and sign up today to make sure voters know all of their options for voting in November. If you haven’t been involved much yet, this is your chance! You only have 100 days left to help make sure Democrats win in Oakland County!
- Precinct Delegate Trainings: DPDOC has scheduled three more PD Orientation/Trainings (July 13, July 18, July 21). These will likely be the last trainings until after the August 4 Primary. You can register HERE!
There are plenty of virtual events this week, I hope you are able to tune-in to a few! More events are added every day, so keep checking our calendar at ocdp.org/calendar to stay up-to-date or to see it in a calendar format! Send me any other upcoming events at staff@ocdp.org.
Going to an event this week? Forward this email to your friends and neighbors to get them involved too! Have them join our email list HERE!
