DFMC ENDORSES DONNA EDWARDSDemocracy for Montgomery County, an independent, nonpartisan grass-roots activist organization voted to endorse Donna Edwards for U.S. Congress in Maryland's 4th District. DFMC is inspired by, but not affiliated with Democracy for America (DFA) which has also endorsed Donna Edwards.
The DFMC membership overwhelming voted to endorse Edwards this past week. DFMC supports socially progressive, fiscally responsible candidates and policies. The group also endorsed Edwards in her remarkably successful primary effort in 2006 which fell a few thousand votes short of unseating long-term incumbent Albert Wynn.
DFMC activists will support the Edwards campaign by volunteering at events, door knocking, and in several other ways leading up to the Maryland Democratic Primary which will be held February 12, 2008.
DFMC Steering Committee member Gina Angiola is organizing Montgomery County for the Edwards effort. DFMC members have already begun phone-banking, handing out info at subway stops, and organizing coffees, house parties and other events to help Donna Edwards win the 4th District Congressional seat.

DFA Endorses Donna Edwards
From a DFA Emailing: Democracy for America doesn't shy away from tough fights. Bush Democrats think that the "D" next to their name keeps them safe, but you know better.DFA stands up for progressive principles in any district, in every state. That's why primaries matter.
Donna Edwards in MD-04 is a lifelong progressive taking on Rep. Al Wynn -- a Bush Democrat occupying a bright blue seat. And DFA is behind Donna 100%.
We know where Donna Edwards stands. She is the consistent progressive in the race we can count on to fight for our values everyday, not just during election season. Yet, her opponent Al Wynn has been on the run, flipping positions and double-talking his record since the campaign started.
While Donna has stood up against the war in Iraq since the beginning, Congressman Wynn voted with Bush on Iraq from day one. With Democrats like Al Wynn, the GOP doesn't even need to run a Republican. Support Donna Edwards today with $15 and let's kick Bush Democrats out of Congress.
DFMC Discusses Immigration Policy
DFMC members and others discussed Immigration Policy with special guests Maryland Secretary of Labor Tom Perez; Don Mooers, Immigration Attorney; Guled Kassim, former candidate for delegate D19; and Beth Wong, a progressive activist involved with several issues including immigrants' interests. The event, sponsored by DFMC, took place at the Executive Office Building in Rockville Thursday October 25th. DFMC Steering Committee member Sharon Dooley was the primary organizer for the event. DFMC will continue working for progressive immigration policies locally, in Maryland and nationally.

Verified Voting and What is Happening with Legislation in Maryland in 2007.
===================================================
Stan Boyd (and many others) have been working long and hard on this
issue. He will be updating us on where things stand in the fight to
get secure voting in Maryland and how we can help to make this happen.
The Diebold machines consistently appear among the most pressing
problems cited by activists in Maryland - is 2007 the year Maryland
will finally do something about them?
Also: Let's spend a short time talking about lessons learned in the
2006 election. Do you have any hot tips that you would pass on to
another grassroots activist, something you learned new this time
around and others could put to good use in the future? And what issues
do we as a group want to focus on in 2007 in addition to verified
voting?
Please patronize the restaurant (and budget time for that - the line
is slow sometimes!).
Hope to see you on the 16th! For questions, contact Elly Shaw-Belblidia.
