Join Sully Dems Tuesday, October 2nd at 7:30 for our monthly meeting at the Sully District Governmental Center (map).

In addition to finalizing plans for staffing all our polling places and discussing the last full month of this long campaign to elect a Democratic Congress, we will be joined by Xenia Ruiz from Emerge Virginia. A record number of women are running for national and state office this year. Many of them are graduates of Emerge’s nationwide program to train candidates. Xenia will talk about women’s role in upcoming elections.

If you haven’t signed up for a polling place during early voting at the Fairfax County Government Center (map) and at our own Sully District Governmental Center, do it now.  Sully Dems are doing their part at the Fairfax County Government Center on October 3; October 12; October 23; and November 2.  We need to fill a slot for next Wednesday, October 3rd from 8:00 to 10:00 a.m. – please help us make a good showing on our first day!

Let’s fill all these shifts before our meeting on Tuesday. Many shifts are open on November 2nd. We are so close, pick your date and time: Click now

Sully Dems will also be at the Sully District Governmental Center starting October 13 through November 3, Monday through Saturday.  We’re on our own, and WE NEED MANY VOLUNTEERS, especially after October 22nd.  Encourage your friends and neighbors to sign up at

Late August/September Event Updates!

Hello, fellow Sully Dems!

Here are some updates on events happening during the rest of August and throughout September (and October!):

  • Canvassing for Jennifer Wexton
    Thanks to lots of scouting by Sully member Dave Kochendarfer, State Senator Jennifer Wexton opened her campaign office in the Sully District last week. Join Jennifer’s team to change Congress and stop by:

    4229 Lafayette Center Drive
    Suite 1750
    Chantilly, VA (Click here for map.)

    State Senator Wexton’s campaign is canvassing every Saturday (10 a.m., 1 p.m. and 4 p.m.) and Sunday (12 p.m. and 4 p.m.). Tell your family, friends and neighbors and come out to help! Contact voted@sullydemocrats.org.

  • BACK-TO-SCHOOL-NIGHTS – Do a Little, Help a Lot
    Back-to-School Nights (BTSN) start TONIGHT with training at the Fair Oaks Police Station (Click here for map.). Encourage friends, family and neighbors to attend.

    We need a TEAM of volunteers to hand out BTSN literature and answer questions at all the public schools in Sully. If all the times at your local school are taken, please look for open places at other locations. We have many areas of the district with limited connection to their voters. Volunteering for Back-To-School Night needs more work. Please sign up for as many places as you are able to handle.

    Click here to signup for Back to School Night!

  • Donate to Jennifer Wexton
    Thursday, August 23rd, 6:30-8:30 p.m. in the Oak Hill neighborhood.
    If you haven’t met her, State Sen. Wexton is genuinely interested in voters, easy to talk to, informed and dynamic. Hosts Barbara and Robert Glacel hope to see you there.

    RSVP Here!

  • Unite for Justice
    Sunday, August 26th
    Republicans must be feeling the heat about maintaining their Senate majority after the November election as they rush to fill retiring Justice Kennedy’s seat on the Supreme Court. Unite for Justice is organizing local rallies throughout the U.S. to demand that Senators oppose Republicans’ rush to judgement.

    Find a rally near you.

  • Women’s Equality Day
    Thursday, August 26th, 11:00 a.m. – 1:45 p.m.
