Northwest Democrats Page 4 October 10 ZOOM Meeting 10 am Hints: 1. Meeting can be accessed through cell phone, desk top computer, laptop. 2. Position your camera so we can see your face. (not your body, breakfast, furniture, etc.) 3. Mute yourself while others are speaking. (Participants can hear you talking to family members, making comments, coughing, etc.) 4. Invite family, friends, neighbors to “ZOOM” with us. NWD MAILER Our trifold mailer will be mailed on Wednesday, September 30. We considered that mail delivery may be slower than normal (another gift from the Trump administration). We wanted the 40,000 mailers to be in voters’ hands before early voting started. It also has useful information about voting by mail, BCDP address and phone, information about joining NWD. A QR code is also available to access the Bexar County Elections office. Most of you will not be receiving the mailer. We targeted non-voting Democrats, young people, independent voters. We will be getting a digital copy and those who access the newsletter through your email will receive a copy. Northwest Democrats Page 5 Keep Energized and Vote Northwest Democrats P.O.
