And then, of course, there is the Senate's vote on impeachment. Come to the NW Suburban Dem offices this Friday night to process through this very looonngg week, and start planning for a better future. Because we all have work to do to build a better future.

Who will win the Iowa Caucus on Feb. 3? At this point, no one knows, not even the mathy folks at fivethirtyeight.  Voters finally will have their say, and in Iowa, that means caucuses. Your pals at GPAD will be at the Northwest Suburban offices, following the coverage. Illinois won't vote until St. Patrick's Day. So Monday night, we'll see what results our corny neighbors come up with. Palatine Township Democratic Committeeman Matt Flamm will be on hand to share his expertise from when he campaigned for President Barack Obama. Sign up here!
