TN 7 Special Election Day Approaches
Aftyn won the Democratic Primary in October. We have 3 more days to motivate Democratic/Independent/disenfranchised Trump voters to get out and vote. While Robertson County went for Trump by 22%, the last poll had Aftyn at 46% and her opponent at 48%. Suddenly, there is a Republican get out of the vote. It has been…
Taking a few minutes to reflect
The Robertson County Democratic Town Hall was a success. Aftyn Behn won the primary for District 7, but came in 3rd in Robertson County. The Primary was 2 weeks ago and the campaign is still trying to get everything in place to run General Election campaign against Matt Van Epps, a Trump endorsed West Point…
All of the effort was worth it!!
Charlie Kirk was killed the day of our Democratic Candidate Town Hall. The Democratic Party office in an adjoining county had a visit from an angry man who threatened the volunteer in the office. I got a call around 3 PM from the RCDP Chair asking if I thought we should cancel our Town Hall.…
Loud and Proud
What does it take to get the Democrats in Robertson County TN to poke their heads out and engage? I am not sure, but I am willing to try about anything. I think I make a pretty good Donkey. This may go up on the RCDP FB page if those in charge (not me) think…
Craig’s Angels
At the Workers over Billionaires protest yesterday we saw the 3 women who cared for Craig at the John Lewis parade just over a month ago when Craig suffered from heat exhaustion. Mandy and Julie, left and center are partners. Andrea, on the right was the ER nurse that recognized how compromised Craig was. They…
Desperate Times take one out of comfort zone – Canvassing
My involvement in politics has been limited aside from financial support. I did do some phone banking in 2016 and lots of postcards in 2024. While I had heard from others that canvassing was fun and rewarding, I was not convinced that would be the case for me. The Robertson County Democratic Party Treasurer, Donna,…

Beyond that we want provide helpful information as the full effect of the recently…
Meet Lucy
The biggest challenge in my move to Tennessee has been the lack of safe cycling. In DC, I could ride 20-30 miles from the door of my condo, mostly on bike paths. There are some greenways in Nashville but they are a 20 minute drive. There is the Natchez Trace, but that is a 45…
Democrats were out in force in Robertson County
We had lots of help getting our tent set up. There were so many of us that people were out working the crowd – getting people to come over and do the Bean Poll and signing up on our email list. We had 26 people sign up. 8 was the biggest number to date. There…
A Pause to Reflect
Since the middle of June, I/we have been working hard on behalf of the Robertson County Democratic Party which has grown pretty inactive over the past 2 decades. Everyone has said that the Springfield (county seat) First Friday event is the most important event to be at. Tonight is our first, First Friday. We had…
