North Oak Cliff Democrats

Just wanted to apologize for those who went to the happy hour and couldn't find me. I wasn't released from the hospital until it was too late to make it there.

Our next happy hour will be 5:30PM Tuesday October 25th at PhD on the corner of N Clinton and W Davis.

Other important upcoming dates:

Oct 24 first day of in person early voting
Oct 28 last day to apply for ballot by mail
Nov 4 last day of in person early voting
Nov 8 election day/last day to receive ballot by mail

We have a number of August events that are not just about the North Oak Cliff Democrats, so I want to share them with you.
