When: TONIGHT, April 24, 2008 at 6 pm

The Jacksonville Chapter of the Democratic Professionals Council (DPC) would like to invite you to our monthly social, to be held at Tastings on the Southbank.

The DPC seeks to re-engage and strengthen Jacksonville area professionals with the Democratic Party. With the upcoming 2008 Presidential election, as well as a host of other local, state, and federal races, now is a great time to get out and network with your fellow Democrats. With that in mind, we have also extended invitations to the area candidates to join us for this event.

For those of you who aren't familiar with Tastings, it is a wine sampling bar that also boasts a great beer selection and appetizers.

Please visit http://www.democraticprofessionalscouncil.org/ for more information and sign up to receive regular event invitations and announcements.

JaxOutLoud.com expirements with citizen activism..

Over at JaxOutLoud, it's always been our goal to help the residents of Jacksonville interact with the government in productive ways. We want to make sure the people of Jacksonville have an opportunity to have their voices heard in matters that affect us all.

Not everyone can make it to committee meetings during the day or even to City Council meetings in the evening hours. We believe the internet is the most effective tool for putting the people in touch with their representatives. To that end, we have a bit of an open beta concerning Bill 2008-206 and the Dick Brown litigation against the City.

Bob Harms to the rescue (again)

Once again, Bob Harms answers the call to help the voters of Jacksonville. He again enters the legal fray to preserve our right to a fair and legal election.

Go, Bob, go!

Here's a direct link to Harms's Motions for Joinder and For Transfer.

And you know we'll be discussing it at JaxOutLoud.

Harden & Brown vs. Jacksonville!

Oh boy. Here we go.

Everybody's favorite above-the-law lobbyist has taken the must-win case of above-the-law Dick Brown to open the At-Large Group 2 ballot to anyone and everyone who lives within the Group 2 boundaries.

I'll be back to offer a more detailed legal analysis of the complaint and supporting documents.

Check out the JaxOutLoud thread where you can download a copy of the complaint.

On first glance, it appears Mr. Brown is hanging his hat on the flawed premise that Mr. Jabour resigned from the Jacksonville City Council on 2/28/08. Stay tuned...
