LDMC meeting September 13, 2010

State Legislators Visit September LDMC Meeting

We were pleased to welcome State Senator Loretta Weinberg and Assemblymen Valerie Huttle and Gordon Johnson to our September meeting of the Leonia Democratic Municipal Committee. Each of our guests spoke about the current state of the Democratic Party in Bergen County and all of New Jersey. They all pointed out the importance for us to get behind and work to support the entire Democratic Slate in the upcoming election. They also spoke with us on how we can have a positive influence on the future of the Bergen County Democratic Organization. They concluded their visit by taking questions from the group.

The remainder of the meeting was spent discussing the campaign for Leonia council candidates John DeSimone and Darryl Whitter. Jean Arbeiter was present to bring the DMC up-to-date on the Democratic Rally planned for September 19 at the Leonia American Legion. DMC members were asked to provide baskets and goods for the silent auction, and to volunteer for set up and clean up on the day of the event. There was great support and excitement expressed by DMC members for the event.
