    Vice President Kamala Harris is at the top of the ticket with Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and we are ready to rock and roll! Join Greater Palatine Area Democrats at our annual fundraiser as we celebrate a future where we will be free to vote, free to raise our families without government interference, and free to love who we love.

    New thing!! We will have a small silent auction of campaign items. Bring cash or a checkbook and your best bids!
