I got a mailing addressed to me as "Democrat Precinct Chair."
This is from a school board candidate (a traditionally nonpartisan race in my area).

Am I wrong to be suspicious of this candidate? :think:

2. I would be suspicious too...
Definitely find out more about this candidate...educate them if necessary and publicly out them if required.

6. Good idea, Velma D
Well Dang! 11 Democratic primaries, 0 Republican primaries. Huh. Maybe I was wrong.

3. Many people use that term who are
perfectly good "Democratic" candidates. I had to correct one of our best. If it worries you, look up his voter registration!

7. Well, there's no voter reg by party here,
so we have to go by primary voting history, and sometimes we get "crossovers" ... but this candidate has a lot of D voting history, so I guess that's not ALL crossing over. :D

8.  Does Your Precinct >Have< a Democratic Chairman?
If so, maybe it's for him or her.

If not, maybe you have just been elected.
