ST. MARYS — The Elk County Democratic Committee will host a Grand Opening celebration at their 2022 Victory Headquarters located at 210 Brusselles Street in downtown Saint Marys at 6:30 p.m. Friday, Aug. 19.
Democrats from across Elk County and the surrounding area are invited to join in on the celebration which will feature a visit by Erica Vogt, candidate for Representative in the General Assembly, 75th District (Elk and Clearfield Counties) from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Light refreshments will be served.
In addition to meeting with candidate Vogt, visitors will be able to pick up yard signs for John Fetterman for U.S. Senate as well as Josh Shapiro for Pennsylvania Governor. The Committee also has literature for all of their candidates including Mike Molesevich, candidate for Representative in US Congress, 15th District.
After the Grand Opening, the committee plans to have their headquarters open limited hours during the rest of August and then plans full, regular hours from after Labor Day until the general election on Tuesday, Nov. 8, 2022.
“It is important that Democrats are out there, visible and vocal in their communities talking about the tremendous legislative accomplishments of the 117th United States Congress and the bold leadership by President Joe Biden in the areas of Covid remediation, preserving the environment, improving health care access, protecting seniors and holding millionaires and billionaires responsible for their fair share of our tax burden,” said Committee Chair Rich Schweikart. “That is why we felt it so important to have our headquarters open earlier than ever before right here in downtown Saint Marys”.
