Don't Delay
Need Your Help Today
The DREMA Dems PAC wants to participate with the WVDLC in an automated phone call to all the registered Independents who have not yet voted to caution them to ask specifically for a Democratic Ballot before going into the voting booth.
As you know state law is putting the County Clerks into a unfortunate DON’T ASK – DON’T TELL position. So if the Independent voter does not specifically ask for a Democratic Ballot they won’t get one. They will wind up in the voting booth with a ballot that allows them to only weigh in on non-partisan issues.
We know thousands of people who have either changed their party affiliation or registered Independent for the express purpose of voting for Democrats. This election is too important for their votes not to be counted.
We need to raise $2,000 for the DREMA Dems PAC fund to help get the phone call out to 100,000 Independent voters. Like you, we want their votes to count. So please don’t think about this one. We need to raise $2,000 fast and we can’t do this without your check. So please, write your check today and mail it to:
