Get to know your Precinct Committeeperson
In these days of AI and a need to diligently research information on the internet there is a group of people you can TRUST. Your PC is at your service.
How can you verify that the person on your door step/phone, who is telling you they are your PC, is legit?
Look yours up at the McHenry County Democratic Party website. If you have a PC and have not yet met them in person or missed a phone call from them, call them and say HELLO!!!!!!

You can also check McHenry County Governments website to verify:

There are new PC’s appointed when they volunteer so they might not yet be on either of these websites. In this case reach out to your District Chair:
