The Charlottesville Democratic Committee
On Monday, June 24, we’ll have our next Full Committee meeting at 6:30pm at one of the shelters in Forest Hills Park.
In addition to talking about our activities for the upcoming election, we’ll have representatives from Sin Barreras, an advocacy organization which works with the Latino Community. AND we will serve Mexican popsicles from La Flor Michoacana, which is a good reason to come in itself!
This is an open meeting so please invite friends.
Our Cville Dems co-chairs say:
Dear Dems,
Thank you all for braving the heat to spread the word about our candidates on Primary Day. Gloria Tinsley Wittwas the overwhelming winner for Democrats.
Congrats and best wishes to Gloria, who won a hard-fought primary race to run against a Trump-backed candidate for the 5th District congressional seat.
We’re with you all the way to Capitol Hill!

GOP’s Bob Good and John McGuire’s tallies are so close, we wonder if they’ll ask for a recount. That would be great, as it will tie them up in wrangling with each other rather than working to get elected.
If you have tents, tables, and/or the box/tub for your precinct, please return it to Nancy Damon’s front porch ASAP (so the Damons don’t get cited for having so much stuff on their porch!)
A big thanks you to our state delegate Katrina Callsen, as well as to Jason Melendez and Roy Carter, for registering voters at the Juneteenth Celebration last Saturday!
If you’d like to help with this important effort to increase the Democratic voting potential in Cville, please contact Suzanne Michels at suzemichels@gmail.com.
Thank you everyone who planned, participated in, supported, and/or attended our Summer Bash!
The third annual Summer Bash brought Cville Dems over its desired fundraising goal of $20,000 by about $2,000 – and perhaps as much as $4,000 once the Silent Auction proceeds are tallied.
Our “Love Vote” T-shirts (pictured below and designed by Kate Damon of DC SparkleSquad) are still on sale for $25, with $10 from each sale going to us to help fund our campaign work and hiring interns (various duties to support the campaigns, canvasses, and all our other volunteer efforts in this critical election year!).
If you’d still like to participate in some of the auction fun, there’s space for you at movie nights at the home of Fred and Nancy Damon; contact Nancy at nancycdamon@gmail.com.
