Running for the DCC- March 12th Deadline

Pledge 4 of the San Joaquin County Democrats 2.0 Pledge states the following:

Continue striving for diversity-While inroads have been made there is still a need for diversity in regards to ethnicity, residency (in particularly rural parts of the county like Ripon, Escalon and Linden) and age among DCC members.

Do you have concerns for your community? Passion for politics? Want to see your name on a ballot? Well how bout running for to be a representative with your local democratic party? How, you ask? Fairly simple.

1) First, visit the County of San Joaquin, Registrar of Voters

212 North San Joaquin Street
Stockton, CA 95202-2409
(209) 468-2885

The process will take about thirty minutes and is fairly painless.

2) Collect 20 signatures from registered democrats from your district. Your district area is the same as your county supervisors. To encourage diverse participation, the organizers of SJ Democrats 2.0 are offering to email you a list of Dem voters from your neighborhood to make signature collecting easy. It's always safe to collect at least 30 signatures to leave room for any errors that might come up.

3) Return your collected signatures to the San Joaquin Registrar of Voters by the March 12th deadline.

See, a pretty simple process, right? New voices, diverse opinions and a range of experiences will strengthen an already strong local party. Can you commit to a better tomorrow by joining the San Joaquin County Democratic Committee?

So what does the SJCDCC do? Well, they attend a monthly meeting where they vote on the direction of the county Democratic party. They endorse non-partisan local races and they hold fundraisers to support Democrat and non-partisan endorsed candidates. They also get to do fun things like represent the county at state conventions.
