For safety, all attendees are required to wear a mask unless speaking.

The guest speaker is Secretary of State Shenna Bellows who will present “Defending Our Democracy” to discuss: legislative accomplishments that continue to make Maine a model for protecting voting rights in the country; disinformation that poses risks to our democracy and how to counter it; and concrete ways to stand up for voting rights and election integrity in 2022.

All Lincoln County Democrats and unenrolled progressives are welcome to attend LCDC meetings.

We're excited about returning to in-person meetings, but we're also committed to ensuring that anyone who wants to can participate in our work,” said Kelli Whitlock Burton, LCDC vice chair. “That's why we're doing a hybrid meeting that will allow people who can't attend in person to join us by Zoom.”
