Midwest CCDS meeting
Midwest members and friends of Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism at a November 11 regional meeting in West Lafayette, Indiana voiced cautious optimism about the results of recent Congressional elections.
In Northwest Indiana, Beryl Fitzpatrick reported, voter participation was up over prior elections and young people worked the polls. Economic crisis has fueled political anger. More people feel the war on Iraq is related to dwindling good paying jobs and the decline in social services. The growing ferment in the region exists in the context of resistance to change among conservative Democrats and corruption. .”[3]
