Just a few reminders about April deadlines: 

Upcoming State Convention May 13th & 14th: We encourage all who are able, and comfortable, to join us in Bangor and attend the Convention in-person. However, you can attend remotely as well! Attendees must purchase a ticket to attend the Convention both in-person and remotely. Check out our website for a schedule of events and further information!

State Convention Delegates: County Committees can hold vacancy filling elections for State Delegates to the upcoming Convention in May – lots of slots are still available and you can still be a delegate if you’re interested! We will fill open slots at the April 24th CCDC General Meeting. Any Democrat in Cumberland County can run. 

Clean Elections: Clean elections candidates for the State House and State Senate candidates need $5 donations in order to receive public funding for their campaigns by April 20. You can support them by donating today or by sharing the below link for other Democratic voters in your community! Click here to make a $5 contribution to your local State House and Senate candidates.
