Welcome to 2012 with hopes that everyone had the opportunity to spend time with family and friends over the holidays. As we move into the New Year we are faced with many challenges and we all need to devote all of our efforts to re-electing President Obama and supporting all of our Democratic candidates in their upcoming campaigns. As the Republican candidates continue to carve each other up in their recent debates and implode one by one, we are presented with an opportunity for Democrats to be elected to a number of offices.

Meanwhile, we have a number of activities coming up that will require our member’s participation….

Thursday, January 12, 2012, we are cancelling our regularly scheduled meeting to assist Tim Greimel in his campaign to win the special election for the open seat in the 29th District to the House of Representatives. Volunteer activity is welcome anytime and not limited to just Thursday. Activities may include phone calling, walking, or preparing mailings. All efforts will be greatly appreciated. The election is scheduled for Tuesday, February 28, 2012. Ironically, this is also the date that the Republican Presidential Primary is scheduled for Michigan. Democratic turnout for this election will be important.

Thursday, January 12 from 6:00-8:00 PM the Oakland County Obama For America campaign will be holding an Office Open House. The office is located at 4 North Saginaw Street, Pontiac, MI.

Thursday, February 9 at 7:00 PM we will have our regularly scheduled monthly meeting. Tentative guests will include candidates for State Supreme Court and announced candidates for local state offices.

On Saturday, March 10, 2012, The Michigan Democratic Party will hold an Endorsement Convention at Cobo Center in Detroit. Delegates will endorse three candidates for the Michigan Supreme Court and eight candidates for statewide Education Boards.

Saturday, May 5, 2012, The Michigan Democratic Party will hold the Michigan Presidential Democratic Caucus. Per State Party Guidelines, Caucuses will begin at 11 am EDT. Location for Rochester Area Caucus to be announced.
