       With the State legislature scheduled to convene the following Monday and its leadership determine to give public campaign finance a high priority, this forum is coming at a good time to get informed on the issue.     To learn more about the town hall forum or to RSVP, please contact Harry Abbott, 38th LD Secretary, at harry.abbott22 at verizon.net.            An extended invitation from Jackie Minchew, chair of the 44th LD to the membership of the Snohomish County Democrats:   
  You are cordially invited to attend a reception prior to a town hall forum on public campaign finance, after which you may choose to participate in the forum itself.  The reception will begin at 6:15 pm in the PUD Commissioner's Meeting Room.  
   
  The Forum will begin at 7:00 pm in the PUD Auditorium.
   
  The purpose of the forum is to inform the public on how public campaign finance is working in states that have it and on what is being done in this state to bring it here.
   
  At the reception you will have the opportunity to talk one-on-one with politicians from Maine and Arizona who have used public campaign finance, as well as others who are seeking to implement it here.
   
  I hope you can attend.
   
  Sincerely,
  Jackie Minchew, Chair
    44th LD Democrats
