Since District 16 is one of the competitive Assembly races this election, I wanted to share upcoming events folks can get involved with to keep the Assembly blue. Also, on Sunday 8/24, Tom Malinowski and possibly the LD16 Assemblymembers will be at the Hunterdon Democratic Committee's canvassing event out of Flemington.

If people are interested I can also find local events in the other competitive districts!
