Last evening in Norwich was truly something special.
Thank you to everyone who attended the Grassroots East Dinner and helped make it such a powerful night. Seeing 200+ friends, supporters, and grassroots leaders in one room reminded me exactly why this work matters.
A sincere thank you to both of our Gubernatorial candidates, Erin Stewart and Ryan Fazio, for taking the time to be with us and for engaging directly with the people who fuel this movement.
Congratulations to Sharon McLaughlin, our Lifetime Achievement Award recipient — an honor well earned through years of dedication and service. And congratulations to Representative Doug Dubitsky on receiving the Leadership Award for his unwavering commitment to principled leadership.
Special thanks as well to Jonathan Gilman, Lee Elci, and Senator Jeff Gordon for presenting the awards and helping make the evening so memorable.
Most importantly, thank you to every single person who showed up to support our Get Out The Vote mission. Your presence, energy, and commitment are what drive real results.
And now… it’s back to work.
Right now I'm heading to Harrisburg, PA with Vice Chairman Chuck Catania to attend training tomorrow at 12:00 PM for Early Vote Action training with Scott Presler, because winning elections means never stopping the push.
Onward.
Jeff Rogers
Chairman, GRE
