Join Members of DL21C's Women's Issues Committee for a happy hour meet and greet with former Connecticut Secretary of State and Senatorial Candidate Susan Bysiewicz.
The contest to fill Joe Lieberman's seat is shaping up to be one of next year's most critical races - the outcome of could be decisive in whether the Democrats maintain their majority or lose ground to the Republicans. The latest polling shows that Linda McMahon - the multi-millionaire wrestling magnate and Tea Party favorite - is cruising to the GOP nomination. A strong showing by the Democrats is crucial.
This is a unique chance to get to know one of the three Democrats vying for the nomination and very possibly the next Senator from our neighboring state. Anyone with a Connecticut connection will not want to miss this opportunity.
This event is free, but please RSVP.
