A special request from the 46th District Democrats

Dear Valued Member,

Thank you for everything that you are doing to support our efforts in the 2009 election cycle. We can't do this without you.

I have a special request. Are you aware that the 46th District spends almost 30% of our expense budget every year to mail you our newsletter. Our latest Finance Committee report showed that in stark detail. We're constantly trying to find ways to reduce that, and this Constant Contact email service was set up just for that purpose.

We have about 300 Demogram subscribers who have shared their email addresses with us. In order to help us reduce expenses, we are asking these members to consider reading our newsletter on-line instead. We send out a friendly reminder each month when the Demogram is published on-line on our website. That email includes an easy-to-access link so you can read that month's issue and any of the back-issues at your leasure. If you are willing to end your printed subscription, you can still print it with your own printer if you still like the old fashioned 'paper-in-hand' version, or you can read it on your computer screen.

The 46th District Democrats are committed to use our contributions wisely. The less we spend on printing and postage, the more trees we save and the more resources we have available to help support candidates and elected officials who support our platform.

Thank you for your help in streamlining our systems. If you are willing to make this change, please contact me directly. If you got one of the emails that we sent out, simply reply to that email. Or if you did not, we probably don't have your email address, and we NEED to hear from you. Even if you don't want any changes made, please contact me anyway. It would be great to hear from you.

Chad Lupkes
Chair, 46th District Democrats
