Leisure World Democrats and their supporters can now pick up “No Recall on Sept. 14” yard and window signs at the Club’s booth outside Clubhouse 6 on Tuesdays from 10:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. Club members are invited to check out the “clothesline” list of Democratic values, now a part of the Club’s booth.
No Recall on Sept. 14 yard and window signs are also available by calling (562) 296-8521.
Anyone who needs assistance in getting their ballot to the Leisure World official ballot drop box next to the Amphitheater can call (562) 296-8521. If voters prefer, they can also vote in-person from Sept. 11-14 at the LW Fire Station outside the North Gate. The Sept. 14 election to recall Gov. Gavin Newsom is not a typical election and every Leisure World “No Recall” vote is important. ••• During its Aug.18 meeting, Democratic Club members heard from Alyssa Napuri, Harley Rouda’s campaign manager, and Seal Beach Democratic Club President Nathan Searles. Napuri outlined their five-point plan for Rouda to be elected in 2022 to again represent the community in Congress.
Most club members on the Zoom call had just received their ballots for the Sept. 14 recall election. Searles was able to field all of the club member’s questions concerning the election clearly and precisely. He urged members to vote as early as possible.
During the meeting, the club’s program committee announced that they were in the process of securing the following speakers for upcoming membership meetings:
• Marlys Davidson: President of the Los Alamitos USD School Board
• Katrina Foley: Candidate for reelection to the Board of Supervisors • Pete Hardin: Candidate for County District Attorney
• Alex Padilla: Candidate for reelection to the U.S. Senate
• Harley Rouda: Candidate for U.S. House of Representatives ••• LW Democrats and supporters should be aware that they are all appreciated. Everyone’s input to the life of the SBLW Democratic Club is valued, whether it is by joining the club, serving on the board or a committee, attending membership meetings, or just by being a loyal supporter of Democratic values.
Anyone interested in being considered for nomination for one of the open board positions for the 2022-2023 term period should call (562) 296-8521 for more information.
