Senator Durbin Will Celebrate His Birthday in Urbana
Urbana Democrats Hiram and Jean Paley have a tradition of hosting a birthday party for their good friend, U.S. Senator Dick Durbin, to celebrate his campaign for re-election. Local Democrats may remember singing Happy Birthday to the Senator at his November 2001 birthday party in Champaign.
The public is invited to help Senator Durbin celebrate his birthday at a fundraiser reception in his honor on Tuesday, November 20, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Kennedy’s Stone Creek banquet facility in Urbana. Senator Durbin will be there to meet supporters, and he will speak and answer questions starting at 6:15 p.m. Wine and hors d’oeuvres will be served, and of course, birthday cake!

Senator Durbin will be on the ballot for the February 5, 2008 Democratic Primary election and on the general election ballot in November 2008.
