They say Republicans bleed red and, in Aurora, GOP supporters will prove its true at the "I give Republican Red" blood drive on June 19. Held in support of the RNC Coalitions effort to help the American Red Cross collect blood across the United States, the Aurora event will take place from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Una Voz, 22 E. Downer Place.

Candidates will be at the event, taking shifts to rally support for the drive, as well as to answer questions about their campaigns.

To sign up for a donation time, call Gabriela Wyatt at 630-772-6436 or Penny Falcon at 630-254-8291.
