A phone bank has been set up at Mississippi Democratic Party headquarters for Saturday, September 27, from 9:00 am until noon. Party headquarters is located at 832 N Congress Street, Jackson, MS 39202. It is located near the Fortification Street and State Street intersection in downtown Jackson. Come and go as your schedule allows.
We will spend the morning making phone calls to remind voters about Election Day on November 4. Please make every effort to spend some time with us this Saturday to support our Democratic candidates. Each call you make gets us one voter closer to victory.
If you cannot be there, you can always make calls from the comfort of your home. Call Thelma Lorentz at party headquarters at 601-969-2913 to get a list of voters in your neighborhood.
The Republicans do not expect us to be competitive in Mississippi this year or anytime soon. Let’s prove them wrong and send them packing.
The voter registration deadline for this year’s election is noon on Saturday, October 4. We need your family, friends, neighbors, coworkers, and congregation to get registered now and to vote on Tuesday, November 4!
Make a personal goal to get five new voters registered by the October 4 deadline. If each of us registers at least five new voters and get them to the polls, we will send the Republicans packing. You can print out the state’s voter registration form by clicking HERE. Again, voter registration forms are due to the circuit clerk no later than noon on Saturday, October 4. The telephone number for the Rankin County Circuit Clerk is 601-825-1466. You may mail or hand deliver voter registration forms to 215 East Government Street, Suite A, Brandon, MS 39042.
We need your help to elect our Democratic candidates Travis Childers to the United States Senate and Douglas Magee to the House of Representatives on November 4. The stakes are too high to allow reckless Republicans to gain full control of Congress. We must not let this happen.
It’s time to roll up our sleeves and get to work! When Democrats vote, we win!
It’s Election Day!
We must turn out and vote for Travis Childers for the United States Senate and Douglas Magee for the House of Representatives.
Be sure to take your photo id and your family and friends to the polls with you. We need every vote we can get in order to send the Republicans packing.
If you have any questions, contact the circuit clerk at 601-825-1466.
