Reception for Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson

5:00pm - 6:30pm

Pettit National Ice Center

84th Street entrance, on the State Fair Grounds
(Upstairs in the Hall of Fame Room)

suggested donation: $10 ~ $100

(This is coincidentally where the Milwaukee County Dems will be holding their regular February meeting that night starting at 7 pm. You might like to hang around and probably even see some other DUers. As was once suggested by Midnight, we should wear blue so we'll be able to recognize each other. Hope to see you there!)

Will she actually be there?

2. She will probably be there

She had a meet and greet in Wausau this Monday. She was there and stayed for 2 hours. We got to ask questions and personally meet her and shake her hand. She is very personable. You will enjoy the event.

5. Hi Dragonlady. I meant to touch base before now.

Any comments you want to share about what Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson was talking about.

6. There was a nice turnout for her

Thanks for asking! Unfortunately, we got there late and heard just the last minute or so of her talk. I'm sure her remarks were "judicious," Afterward we got to say a few words to her and wish her well. She has quite a website (http://www.abrahamson2009.com/index.php/home) which includes a long list of events scheduled in the next month and ways to volunteer and donate (plus a downloadable yard sign). Also they are advertising on dailykos and americablog (that I've seen) which is a really good idea.

The Milwaukee Dems are planning a lot of lit dropping and phoning in the weekend before the election for the Chief Justice and Tony Evers for Superintendent. We'll post more info on that soon.
