Ahh the women, the women—Joe Biden has so many wonderful choices. Why not get to know them now? During the primaries we got to know the amazing people who stepped up to run for president. Now it’s time to get to know those women on Joe’s short list.
We are starting out with Stacy Abrams. The Atlantic Magazine profiles Stacy Abrams as a very, very compelling candidate. In the coming weeks, we will highlight other women on the short list so you can get to know them . . . Gretchen Whitmer is up next.
And speaking of women . . . Annie Kuster has an interview with NHPR outlining her thoughts about the rescue bills being passed, AND our very own Jeanne Shaheen gives this week’s Democratic address. We are so proud of the women in our delegation! Let’s keep sending them to Washington to fight for us!
Don’t forget to register for our ZOOM program this Monday, the 27th. Although the future looks hazy from here, others have been making predictions . . . hope it will be more interesting than terrifying! Scroll down for link.
Speaking of voting . . . the governor has now said that New Hampshire can have mail-in voting because we are all at risk. That’s good news. Now we have to compel the Secretary of State and our local districts to prepare by budgeting for more printing/mailing. Plus we need to have a strong law proclaiming that anyone can vote by mail. See the links below and let’s encourage our Secretary of State to do the right thing.
And btw, go get that COVID-19 tracker on your phone or tablet. We need to be prepared for the next outbreak and this could be a way for our scientists and brainiacs to figure out what’s coming at us.
Don’t forget to use your trusty mask, wave at people, no hugging and stay safe. We are doing an amazing job at this.
