Allen County Democrats get ready for busy election year and fundraising play

LIMA, Ohio (WLIO) — The Allen County Democratic Party is continuing its monthly “Donuts with the Dems” gatherings as a way to engage the community and share its message during a busy election year.

The Saturday informal gatherings, held over donuts, give party members an opportunity to discuss key issues and rally support ahead of the November general election, when all of Ohio’s statewide offices will be on the ballot. Party leaders say they are grateful for the community support shown through protests, rallies and other events held to advance their cause.

“People want to save our democracy. We realize what a gift it has been to all of us, and we want it to be there for our children and our grandchildren, and that's why we're here to ensure that that happens. We want safe, fair elections, and we want to allow everybody safety in our country,” says Rochelle Twining, chair of the Allen County Democratic Party.

The Allen County Democratic Party has also rented the Encore Theater for a fundraiser scheduled for Feb. 1, featuring a Reader’s Theater-style production of “It Can’t Happen Here,” based on the 1935 Sinclair Lewis novel.
