Fellow Dems, it is time once again for our yearly fund raiser and this one is expected to be great.  Our keynote speaker is Stacey Abrams, if you’ve never heard her speak, or even if you have, she is quite informative.  We have cut back on speakers and will be providing live music for your listening and dancing pleasure while you enjoy a delicious meal.  The event is what keeps the office open.  This year is the calm before the storm.  In 2024 we will once again be in not only a fight for president but for democracy as we know it.  Just look at the Republican candidates.  Please, buy your tickets.  If you can not attend, please consider donating your ticket to someone who would like to attend but doesn’t have the means or just donate to the cause.  We are counting on you.  Let’s keep Ga blue.
