WORD FROM THE CHAIR – RAYMOND LEMBKE
Thanks to Covid-19, we are in the season of cancellations and postponements. CCDP’s Executive and Central Committee meetings scheduled for March 26 are cancelled. Our annual Donkey Dinner, scheduled for April 25, is indefinitely postponed. Most important, the March 17 Ohio primary election did not happen. While a lot of people did vote early in person or by mail, most Ohioans vote at their polling places on election day. That means there are a lot of people who still must be given a way to vote.
