Hello
Strafford County Democrats:
Because
Dover needs a representative on the Strafford County Democratic
Committee Executive Board, I am running for the at-large seat
recently vacated by Carole Appel. I was initially asked to run by two
current board members. I have been politically active since college
and have been involved in Dover politics since 2000. In 2001, I was
honored with the Jefferson Jackson Award by the NHDP.
Presently,
I volunteer at the Rollinsford Public Library and at End 68 Hours of
Hunger. The Dover Democrats recognize the role of service and work to
help hungry school children by working with End 68 Hours of Hunger.
We discretely pack and deliver bags of food for school identified
children to bring home for the 68 hour weekend.

Dover
has a revitalized Democratic organization. We have a very high
success rate for electing state reps and Dover municipal office
holders because of the leadership of Wendy Alley, Dover Chair and the
Dover Democratic Committee Executive Board.
Computer
literacy is a good way to be well-informed. I promote computer skills
to seniors I meet through my business and through politics because I
believe technology is a way for seniors to be politically active,
knowledgeable and connected to their communities. You can friend me
on Facebook (Caroline L. French) and find me on Twitter
(CarolineLFrench).
I
will bring my institutional history, background and interests to the
Strafford County Executive Board. If you live in Strafford County and
are a registered Democrat, I would appreciate your vote.
Please
vote on January 15th at 6:30 pm at the Rochester Community Center,
Conference Room #1, 150 Wakefield Street, Rochester, NH. For map and
