Thursday

Democrat, who was one of the largest bundlers for Obama. A contribution of $400/person was required, we rounded it up to $1,000.
We've attended many of her events, most recently for Josh Turek, Adam Schiff, Cory Booker, and my favorite, Jamie Raskin. Many more in past years, such as Nancy Pelosi, Mark Kelly, and Pete Buttigieg.

And it's nice that her house is right around the corner from ours (OK, our view is better, more expansive - 400 yards from the ocean and not many trees blocking our view, but still!) so we walk over, have some wine & snacks and mingle a bit, and then listen to and support some great Democrats!

She always does a nice display! The lox on toasted bread with cheese is my fave.

Have a cookie!
