It is evident that elections have consequences. This is not only true at the national level but it also shows up at the local level. In May 2023, we supported a wonderful slate of progressive candidates who now represent our values at on the Bend-La Pine and Redmond School Boards, the Bend and Redmond Park and Rec Districts, and COCC.
We must continue our efforts and win up and down the ballot again in 2024 by helping the Deschutes Democrats recruit, train, and support the best candidates we can field. We need to raise funds this year so that we can campaign effectively this year and next year.
In order for us to truly take advantage of Democratic enthusiasm here in Deschutes, we will need your support. We don't see those big $2500 and $5000 checks like the other side, but we can do this if we all pitch in together.
