The Medway Democratic Town Committee represents Medway at state conventions and meetings, and conducts the Medway Democratic caucases. In addition, we maintain a volunteer organization year-round so that we have the structure in place to elect Democratic candidates. We invite elected officials to meetings to create a two-way dialogue allowing members to hear about their legislative priorities and allowing our elected officials and candidates to hear local concerns. And we hope to host issue forums, bringing together leading policy experts on cutting edge issues such as health care, public education, civil liberties, environmental issues, and many other topics.The MDTC intends to keep Medway Democrats connected so that we can function effectively as a unit when it is time to campaign. Visit the NEWS page for more local opportunities, meetings and fundraisers.
The LINKS page contains links to the websites of Democratic Candidate candidates who Medway residents can vote for. Registered Democrats can vote in the Primaries on September 7. Stay informed!
Current Opportunities to help our Candidates
- Fund Raiser for Senator Karen Spilka that Kathleen and Paul Yorkis are hosting on Sunday July 25th. Please make every effort to attend as Karen needs your support, your contributions, and your vote in November. Call Paul Yorkis at 508-509-7860.
- Phone banks for Jim McGovern at Patriot Real Estate, 159 Main St. in Medway every Tues., Wed., and Thurs., from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Let me quickly explain how the phone banking will work. Each phone banker will be calling into a system of unenrolled voters. As of now there are two asks: How strong is your support for Jim (1-5) and, if supporting Jim, are you interested in volunteering for the campaign. We're not leaving messages on machines, and once a caller is identified as a 1 (strongly support Jim) or 5 (strongly oppose Jim), we won't be contacting those voters again until GOTV. However, anyone leaning Jim or undecided we will follow up with by sending them lit, maybe calling once again a few months down the road, etc. However, we have to identify where our support is first. I'll be clear: We're not calling people 19 times like Martha Coakley. We're starting this early for precisely that reason, so that we have an organized, set universe of voters who we know where they stand, and then can target our efforts in September and October. If you can make any of these days and times, please let me know. For phone banking information or questions, please contact Scott: 508-826-8335 by phone, scottl@jimmcgovern.com by email.
- Sunday, July 25 from 5:45 p.m. to 7:15 p.m. there will be an organizing meeting for volunteers interested in helping the McGovern campaign. Congressman McGovern and the campaign staff will be there to discuss our plan over the next several months to make sure we keep Jim's seat. PLEASE KEEP THIS DATE OPEN. We are still finalizing location, and as soon as that is complete I will make sure everyone knows.For canvassing information or questions, please contact Scott: 508-826-8335 by phone, scottl@jimmcgovern.com by email.
- Saturday August 7 a fund raiser for Governor Deval Patrick at the home of Paul and Kathleen Yorkis, 7 Independence Lane, Medway from 5:00 PM to 6:30 PM. Call Paul Yorkis at 508-509-7860.
