That means that after more than 4 years, DC Drinking Liberally has to find a new home. Join us as we say goodbye to a Dupont Circle institution and to Dan, the king of waiters: Thursday, May 21, 6:30‒9pm, Timberlake’s, 1726 Connecticut Ave NW (Dupont Circle Metro).</p> <p>We&#8217;re having a little trouble finding a good new location, so we&#8217;ll probably be nomadic for a few weeks and try out some possibilities. Watch for details on future meetings. If you have any suggestions of locations or want to help with the search, let us know in the comments or e-mail dcthu@drinkingliberally.org. I&#8217;m sure locations will be a big discussion topic this week, so come and put in your two cents. </p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRSS>http://dcdl.org/2009/05/20/dcdl-says-goodbye-to-timberlakes/feed/</wfw:commentRSS> </item> <item> <title>DC City Council Chair Vincent Gray at Drinking Liberally</title> <link>http://dcdl.org/2009/05/13/vincent-gray-drinking-liberally</link> <comments>http://dcdl.org/2009/05/13/vincent-gray-drinking-liberally#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 14 May 2009 00:43:53 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Keith</dc:creator> <category>DCDL</category> <category>DC Community</category> <guid>http://dcdl.org/2009/05/13/vincent-gray-drinking-liberally</guid> <description><![CDATA[ Do you have questions about what&#8217;s going on in DC&#8217;s local government?

Voting for the DNC positions is normal, and for the DSC positions you&#8217;ll vote for up to 6 from each at-large list and up to 2 from each ward-level list.</p> <p>Most DSC and DNC candidates are affiliated with a slate, which is indicated next to their names on the ballot. Confusingly, but not surprisingly, this year every slate name includes the name &#8220;Obama&#8221;. The largest slate, and the only only that&#8217;s running a candidate for every slot, is the bizarrely named <a href="http://www.obama4unitybeatsmccain.com">Obama4UnityBeatsMcCain</a>. It&#8217;s a mix of incumbents and challengers and includes a lot of people I know from grassroots groups. It&#8217;s been endorsed by <a href="http://www.dcfordemocracy.org">DC for Democracy</a>, <a href="http://www.dcforobama.com">DC for Obama</a>, and <i>City Paper</i>&#8217;s <a href="http://washingtoncitypaper.com/display.php?id=36131">Loose Lips</a> (though he didn&#8217;t endorse the DNC candidates).</p> <p>The other citywide slates are called Obama for DC (note: not endorsed by DC for Obama) and Obama for Change. There are also ward-specific slates named Ward 3 Dems for Obama &#038; Change and Obama&#8217;s Ward One Democrats. DCist has a <a href="http://dcist.com/2008/09/08/about_those_dc_democratic_party_sla.php">pretty good writeup</a>.</p> <p>Hopelessly confused? My advice is just to look for the &#8220;4&#8243; and vote Obama4UnityBeatsMcCain. If a critical mass of them gets elected, then maybe there&#8217;s some hope of making the local party functional. </p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRSS>http://dcdl.org/2008/09/08/democratic-state-committee-candidates/feed/</wfw:commentRSS> </item> <item> <title>Vote Tuesday in the DC Democratic Primary</title> <link>http://dcdl.org/2008/09/08/vote-tuesday-in-the-dc-democratic-primary</link> <comments>http://dcdl.org/2008/09/08/vote-tuesday-in-the-dc-democratic-primary#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 08 Sep 2008 15:30:03 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Keith</dc:creator> <category>DCDL</category> <category>DC Community</category> <category>Democrats</category> <category>Elections</category> <guid>http://dcdl.org/2008/09/08/vote-tuesday-in-the-dc-democratic-primary</guid> <description><![CDATA[ Tuesday, September 9, is primary day here DC.
