We've worked hard this fall, gathering thousands of ballot signatures across the township, cross-checking with databases and finally submitting nominating petitions to the Elections Board so that we can VOTE for DEMOCRATS and PROGRESSIVES at the March 17 Primary! So let's eat pizza and have fun with your friends at Greater Palatine Area Democrats! RSVP! Right Here! Right Now! Do it by Dec. 2!
