Forget the Shoestrings, Willco Dems' HQ Can't Even Afford Toilet Paper

The Democratic Party hasn't been a strong contender in Williamson County since, well, the Gipper took office, but it's nevertheless staging a valiant effort this election year.

The new campaign headquarters for Willco's Democratic candidates opened this past weekend to some fanfare, despite being largely overshadowed by the convention of marauding liberals in downtown Austin. They're now up and running, and could use your donations and/or volunteer time.

The list of things needed (some of which will be returned after the election, promise):

* Volunteers * Paper Products (towels, tp, napkins, etc) * Non-Dairy Coffee Creamer * Coffee * Full-Size Refrigerator (to be returned after the election) * Laptops Computers (to be returned after the election) * General Office Supplies (post-its, pens, staples, etc) * Recycled Printer Paper * Recycled #10 Envelopes * Trash Bags * Trash Cans (to be returned after the election) * Cleaning Supplies (window cleaner, bathroom cleaner, etc) * Cleaning Towels * Older Campaign Signs for Decoration
