"Remember the Pay Raise" -- No More Tricks or Treats Rally
featuring Gene Stilp & the 25 foot tall "pay raise pig"
Rally for
Fred Dewey,
candidate for PA State Assembly District 168
WHERE: Front Steps, Media Courthouse, Media PA
WHEN: October 31, 2006 - 12 Noon
WHY: Last summer on July 7 at 2:00 AM the PA State Legislature
tricked us and treated themselves to a 20 - 50% pay raise with no
public comment. Our "trusted" legislators do not seem to want
to discuss the pay raise, but we do. We don't believe you can sweep
moves like this under the rug. Therefore this Halloween we're going
to drag these ghouls into the light - and send a loud and clear
message that the voting public refuses to be tricked by elected
officials who vote themselves $$ when they think no one is watching
in the darkest witching hour.

is 22 Clover Lane in Wayne. We are planning on hitting local homes
as well as having people handing out lit on the bike trail. The
canvassing should wrap up around 5pm. After that we are having a
good old fashioned Democratic barbecue. Food, fun, and politics. No
fund raising. So it does not cost to get in. We just want to have a
good time and get as many people involved as possible. Bring a
friend (even a Republican). We will be talking lots of politics,
national and local.
Not being available for canvassing is no excuse for not showing up
at the barbecue.

Casey Campaign House Parties
On June 13th, the Casey Campaign had several house parties across
the state (check out the photo gallery at
http://www.bobcasey.com/multimedia/photos). Each location
participated in a conference call with Bob and heard more about his
positions on the issues and how he will better represent the needs
of Pennsylvanians in the US Senate. These events were a great
success, and in the words of one host, "guests were pleased with the
amount of information they received from him [Bob] in one phone call
and were excited to hear his plans for the state and for the
country."
On July 12th, the Casey Campaign will be having another round of
house parties and plan to build the house party network across the
state, and increase the dedicated group of Team Casey volunteers.
With your help we can help make that goal a reality.
The goal is to have 10 house parties in each of the 67 counties. If
you are interested in hosting a house party for Bob Casey, please
contact Liz Conroy at
lconroy@bobcaseyforpa.com .

Informational meetup to review the Neighbor to
Neighbor Organizing event
Note: this meetup preempts the April Casey Meetup!
Never before has the Democratic Party been more organized in advance of an election. With new staff hitting the ground everywhere from Alaska to Arkansas, we are going to fight for every vote in every corner of every state in 2006.
Right now we're preparing for the next big step in the Democratic National Committee's 50-state strategy. On April 29th, thousands of volunteers will recruit hundreds of thousands more Americans committed to changing the status quo this year.
We're going to do it by making personal contact with our neighbors. April 29th will be the Democratic Party's first-ever National Neighbor-to-Neighbor Organizing Day. We're going to test our organization and build new relationships among volunteers with door-knocking events in communities across America.
And right here in Delaware County we are going to send volunteers into precincts where it is critical that we recruit new precinct workers to help elect the entire Democratic ticket from Ed Rendell to Joe Sestak to our state legislative candidates. We need your help with this project so that we have the volunteer staff necessary to hit the precincts where we most need to recruit new volunteers.
