From Holly Lyon, Chair, Pinal County Democratic Party
BE A POLL WORKER OR OBSERVER ON ELECTION DAY
We really need YOU to help keep these elections accessible and fair for everyone.
I’m trying to recruit mostly Poll Observers/Watchers for all of the Pinal County polls. In addition, the County Elections office needs Poll Workers. Click below to find explanations of both and how you can help.
A WORD ABOUT SINGLE-SHOT VOTING
Single-shot voting is a voting tactic where a voter is entitled to vote for more than one candidate but instead votes for only one candidate.
A voter might do this either because it is easier than evaluating all the candidates, or as a form of tactical voting. This tactic can be used to increase the chance that the voter's favorite candidate will be elected, while increasing the risk that other candidates will lose. A group of voters using this tactic consistently has a better chance for one candidate to be elected.
If you are serious about getting your Democratic candidate elected to office where he/she can do some good, please vote for only ONE candidate on your ballot for that office - the Democratic candidate.
If we have not succeeded in explaining this confusing ballot choice or if you need more information, please contact our club Chair, Ralph Atchue, at demsofcasagrande@gmail.com and he will be happy to help you.

Write-in Adelphia Sesson for CGESD!
Democrats of Casa Grande support her efforts to make a difference on the CG Elementary School Board
Adelphia has been a longtime leader of the Latino Familia Initiative. She has worked tirelessly to promote civic and community engagement of Latino youth in Pinal County.
Adelphia Sisson, originally from Michigan, has lived in Arizona since she was a toddler, and a grandchild is now part of the Casa Grande school system.
Watching her children, and a grandchild, go through the school system, Sisson was inspired to run as a board candidate in the Casa Grande Elementary School District in hopes to make a difference in her community.
Sisson currently serves as director of legal services at Pinal-Gila Council for Senior Citizens. According to Sisson, she is active throughout the community and has been part of funding committees, focus groups and other board training.
Sisson believes that with her Casa Grande roots she can make a difference in her community by being on the board. “This is my home,” Sisson said.
“In any endeavor, I’ve given it my all, I have a genuine and sincere interest,” Sisson said.
Due to COVID-19, campaigning in Casa Grande has been difficult, with limited contact with fellow residents.
“Difficult is an understatement,” Sisson said.
Sisson isn’t alone. Out of the four candidates running for the school board, three of them are write-in candidates, including Sisson.

In addition to meetings, speakers, and social activities, we pay close attention to state politics. With the federal government polarized into gridlock, state politics is that much more important. State lawmakers are more accessible and we can use that to our advantage. We The People have safeguards: the right to overturn bad laws through public vote, the right to recall lawmakers who aren't serving us, and the right to make our own laws via initiative. This right is constantly being undermined by the Republican Party.
