We're going to help Tom Hanson get the requisite signatures needed to get his name on the ballot for the special election caused by Rahm Emanuel vacating his seat to become Chief of Staff for Barack Obama. He describes himself as a "Liberal Republican." He is very interested in working with the GLBT community, and so far he's demonstrated this commitment by marching in the Gay Pride Parade and canvassing during Market Days.
You can learn more about Tom at his website:
We'll meet at COH, to pick up the petitions, but may ask you visit another high traffic location to collect signatures. If you have a clip board please bring it!
Comment to this meeting with questions, or email me at: [masked].
