Last year we held a fundraiser for Danny Stover, candidate for US Representative in IL CD-19. We had a total blast of a good time and want to do it again!

This year we're raising funds to sponsor students attending the DFA Training Camp in Springfield, IL Sept. 29-30.

Registration begins at 6:15pm, games begin at 7pm and truth be told there is no end time. Around 11 is when we wrapped up last time.

St. Louis Post Dispatch endorses Stover!

[promoted by leo]

St. Louis Post Dispatch endorses Danny Stover (IL-19)!!

"In the Illinois 19th, which takes in a bright red swath of Illinois from Springfield southward, Rep. John Shimkus, 48, was cruising toward a sixth term until his name popped up in the investigation of the scandal surrounding former Rep. Mark Foley, R-Fla. As head of the House Page Board, Mr. Shimkus confronted Mr. Foley in the fall of 2005 over one relatively innocuous e-mail to a former page. Mr. Shimkus says he had no inkling that Mr. Foley's problems went deeper. "There's a lot of guilt," he said, adding "I'm pretty clueless on people's private lives."

JFK dinner with Stover and friends

[promoted by leo]

I spent this evening with my Congressional candidate, Danny Stover , along with my Senator, Dick Durbin, my Governor, Rod Blagoevich and my state Treasurer candidate Alexi Giannoulias at the Madison County Democrats JFK Dinner at the Collinsville (Rep. Shimkus' hometown) Convention Center.

The 500+ enthusistic attendees were treated to many motivational speeches. I was surrounded by 17 friends, all dedicated members of Downstate Democrats for Change, who have been working hard for Stover's campaign since April.

Tomorrow we begin our 2nd weekend of major canvassing in Madison County (21% of District 19's population). Last weekend we reached over 5400 homes with our small army of volunteers.
