Candidate Focus 2020: Coming this Friday, July 10 — watch for it!
Looking ahead, there’s a strong roster of Dems in place for election this November. Some are running unopposed, some are heavy favorites in their locales, some face tough challenges. Up and down the ballot, DPBC wants you to know who’s in the running and what’s at stake. That’s why we’ve created Candidate Focus 2020. It’s a place and platform designed to provide candidates with visibility and link them to our volunteers and voters, via our DPBC newsletters and website.
Be sure to have a look at this Friday’s DPBC newsletter for the first Focus feature articles and listings!
