    April 2011 Volume 9, Issue 4 11th LD Democratic Organization Chair Martha Koester April 2011 Chair’s Report Martha Koester We’ve had quite a busy time in March and early April with many actions in Olympia promoting closing tax loop- holes over cutting essential services. A grand time was had by all on Larry Grubb’s birthday at Mick Kelly’s; thanks so much, Larry, for the great jazz music! The weather is warming up, and it’s time to get serious about voter registration and fundraising. Look for some calls during the month for phone banking and canvassing days. We’ve got early endorsements coming up at our April meeting. After the filing deadline new candidates Pam Linder (for Mayor of Renton) and Dian Ferguson (for Seattle City Council) will be requesting endorsements. I hear so many gripes about not having enough good candidates for state and federal office; we really must pay attention to these local races to get more good people in the pipeline. Burien City Council Member and Water Commissioner Kathy Keene is finalizing her plans for retiring to Florida. Does she realize that wildlife there includes some very large cockroaches?
