Organization is Key

Though it may not seem so, the democratic party in Washington County is at a crossroad. The State Committee of the Democratic Party of Georgia met on May 21, 2005 in Atlanta. The outcome of the meeting and whether or not Washington County was represented is not known. The party organization here is inert. There are enough people here who are interested in democratic party principles to move forward.

Washington County only has enough registered voters to have one county delegation in the state party structure according to the Democratic Party of Georgia By-Laws. If we Washington County Democrats don't demand appropriate representation at the state level, we are going to be left out and our voices will not be heard at any level. I urge every registered Democrat in Washington County to visit

and sign the guest book to begin an effective base for Democratic Party principles in Washington County. I believe that we can work with the current hierarchy to move forward. We can't just sit here and be inactive as voters lose interest in our party.

The webpage shown above is not in anyway sanctioned by any official party organization, but rather is just the genesis of a site that could provide information and direction. It, of course, can be removed and another created in its stead. We can do this if we have the will.
