Showing Original Post only (View all)Please support new DUer Stephanie DuBois as you have supported me for nearly 19 years! [View all]
Ive run for office before with DU support-not just financial but moral support, tech support (my God, what would I do without OmahaSteve?), emotional, mental, and even spiritual) and Im eternally grateful for that. Im asking again for DU support.
Im in the eye of the hurricane, ground zero in violent rhetoric, grifters & traitors like Cowboys for Trump Couy Griffin, but we have even worse in David Clements more info in the coming weeks.
While Im not running for office this election I recruited my friend and partner in mischief for the past 20 years, Stephanie DuBois, to run for Otero County Commissioner and Ill be asking for you to support this new DUer.
This was in 2010 at our second We Trust Women rally DUer duhneece is in purple hoodee, and DUer and candidate Stephanie DuBois is second from right in ball cap.
Heres Stephanie registering voters at the 2022 We Trust Women rally:
Two days ago Otero County Commission passed a resolution Otero County is a Sanctuary for the Unborn. Truly horrible resolution but the GOOD NEWS:
Stephanie and Ive been the lead organizers for the We Trust Women rallies since 2009 but we quit during Covid. A young woman called the newspaper a couple of months ago and was given my name. I told her I just couldnt organize this year, she pleaded, I told her that if she would meet me at City Hall to fill out a permit (done as a courtesy but it ensures that we get all 4 corners of our favorite intersection on the permit, and we get all 4 corners with no counter-protestors) and prepare a graphic with all the info, I would share it. It was incredibly electrifying. We got huge (for us) crowds at two rallies with a very diverse mix. Our group was mostly seniors, mostly Democrats .her group (shes 22, gay, married, young mother) is young LGBTQ, some military (we have Holloman AFB here), far too many not registered to vote. Weve organized into 4 teams to register voters at the only place we register more Dems and Independents , the barber shop that most minorities get their hair cut at (dangling p ). THEN, when our County proposed this resolution, we got many to come and speak out against the resolution to no avail, but they attended their first-ever county commission meeting, they understand the need to elect Democrats up and down ballot.
