Walking Neighborhoods for The Democratic Party

Yesterday was very hot but that did not stop democrats for hitting the neighborhoods of the Ridgecrest Area of the city around 1:30 until 4:00 pm to encourage voters to support democratic candidates in the fall and to collect information about issues from the voting public. We had around 11 or 12 people some of which were supporters from the Martin Heinrich's Campaign for Congress in District 1 of New Mexico which turned out to be between 5 or 6 groups to walk neighborhoods in the southeast part of the city around the Ridgecrest area. We started around 1:30 and walked to around 4:00 p.m. One thing we can say about this area of the city is that we are true blue. It is always good to get out and talk with neighbors that support our party. We were asking them general information and encouraging them to vote in the fall for a list of candidates that simply can not be beat. We wanted to know what issues they wanted us to take back to the party. We were inviting them to a party at my apartment for Tom Udall for Senate.

My party will be poolside from 3 to 5 this coming Saturday. Sara Cobb will be speaking for Congressman Udall because he and his family will not be in the city on Saturday. I have invited local candidates to come say hello to the party goers. We will have light food and drinks and people are welcome to come cool off in the pool. I can think of no better way to spend a Saturday afternoon. Party: Invite.
