Letter to the Editor: Improve on Election Returns

— from David Turnoy, Chair, San Juan County Democrats —

Hello Progressive Residents of San Juan County,

The San Juan County Democrats will hold our first meeting of 2018 on Saturday, Jan. 13, at Skagit College in Friday Harbor starting at 11:30 a.m.

It is time to improve on our wins in late 2017 as we move to take back our country. One of our biggest accomplishments was helping Manka Dhingra win her race for state senate in Redmond by going down there to canvass, and by doing so we helped turn the state senate from Republican control to Democratic control. Now progressive legislation will no longer die in the state senate. There will be lots of important elections this year, and your help would be most welcome.

If you are traveling from an island other than San Juan, generous Friday Harbor drivers will pick us up at the ferry landing at 11:30, then return us to the ferry in time for the 2:50 ferry. If you cannot attend but would like to tune in, you can attend virtually via Zoom conference: go to https://zoom.us/j/206693831, and our meeting ID is 206-693-831.

Thanks and I hope to see you there.
