TIME TO TAKE ACTION

Let's add "OF BEING A DEMOCRAT IN KANSAS"! It's not going to be an easy election but one way to make sure the opposition is successful is to sit back and do nothing. There are calls to be made to get out the vote; doors to be knocked on to encourage and inform voters; signs to be displayed to show support. Don 't let this election pass you by without making the effort to make a difference. Watch for opportunities to get involved. In the short time before November 2 there will be a chance for you to do your part. To find out how and when contact Reno County Democrats at renodemo@earthlink.net or call 620-200-0279. Your efforts matter and can make the difference.

RCDEMS WELCOME LT. GOVERNOR CANDIDATE KULTALA





An unexpected call the day of the Holland/Brownback debate and the hospitality of Jon Powell added up to a pleasant evening for RCDemocrats as they gathered to watch the spectacle with Holland's running mate, Kelly Kultala. Kultala had joined the RCDems earlier this summer to march in the Emancipation Day parade. Attendees at the improptu event were pleased with Holland's appearance at the debate. None are surprised that Senator Sammy doesn't wish to appear side by side with him in further debates.







MILLER AND MACE AT CANDIDATE FORUM













Jack Mace (KS House District 104) and Curt Miller (KS House District 101) appeared at the forum sponsored by Hutch CU, Hutch News and Young Professionals at the Ramada Inn to answer questions submitted by voters. Both did an outstanding job and are deserving of all the support we can muster. Signs for both candidates and others are available at the Reno Co Democratic HQ.

DEMOCRATS SUPPORT MACE AT BUHLER FROLIC


It was a cool, crisp autumn morning, perfect for a parade. About a dozen Reno Co Democrats joined Jack Mace, candidate for KS house district 104 to show their support. Mace is a frequent substitute teacher in the Buhler schools and has gained the support of teachers throughout the county. It was interesting to note that his incumbant opponent was on hand as well but only to drive his vehicle with no supporters in sight.

BETTY AND JAMES TAYLOR HOST RECEPTION


Numerous voters were invited to get acquainted with Gubenatorial candidate Tom Holland. A sizable crowd including Independents and Republicans came to the Dillon Nature Center to hear Mr. Holland speak. The event was sponsored by the Taylors and included an impressive assortment of refreshements provided by volunteers. Both Holland and his staff were impressed with the success of the event and the hospitality shown them.
