Need Help November 5th

,
We are looking for help at the polls November 5th. For the new guys and the guys who weren’t around when we didn’t have political support, it was a tough time in the AFD.
We have since made a lot of friends who have helped us rebuild the department to where we can safely operate. Our needs will never go away and we need to make sure those who support us stay in positions where they can continue to help.
For that to happen they need us out supporting them at the polling stations November 5th. It doesn’t matter if you are an R or a D, what matters is that we stand with our friends who have consistently had our backs.
Free up some time November 5th to help the Local show that we support those who support us!
We will be manning 6 polling stations through out the City from 0700ish to 1130 then from 1500ish until the poll slow down around 1900. We will provide tees and meet up for lunch at noon.
Come out and support the Local’s friends Novemver 5th.
Any questions contact Hottenstien (570) 236-4952 or Perreault (484)892-1787.
Solidarity,
Local 302 Executive Board
