Just a quick reminder that we are hosting an open house for Donovan Riley, candidate for the Wisconsin state senate for the 7th district on Tuesday, January 31st, from 5:00 to 7:00 in the evening. We would love to see you here. You can learn more about Donovan’s candidacy at his web site here: http://www.rileyforstatesenate.org

This is an important race, and your support and vote are vital. With a tight race for the Republican nomination for Governor, the time is right for a truly progressive candidate, like Donovan, to take this senate seat back from the conservative Jeff Plale. We really all must be involved to make sure that our state senate returns to the great progressive tradition that Wisconsin is known for.

B and I had dinner with Donovan tonight, at the Three Holy Women parish spaghetti dinner, and had a nice chat with him while he also got to meet Father Tim Kitzke (our next-door neighbor) and many parishioners. We feel that Donovan has what it takes to win this campaign, and has the right ideas to represent our district in Madison.

We look forward to seeing you on Tuesday!
