Message from the Chair |
It has been a busy month of organizing and setting up our party committees. Last night we had an outstanding turn out to the kick-off of our Activism Committee and many great ideas were shared. While this may be an off election year, there is plenty to do and many ways to get involved to help us be ready for another big election year in 2026! For the next couple months we will be focusing on our municipal elections coming up May 6th and building our base by training and recruiting Precinct Organizers. Want to know more? Read below and stay tuned for future communication.  Meg |
Become a Precinct Organizer! |
Precinct Organizers (POs) and Precinct Organizer Assistants (POAs) play an important grassroots role between the party and the community. As a PO/POA, you are a representative of the Douglas County Democratic Party in your precinct, or neighborhood. Elections are truly won or lost in precincts, especially in Douglas County. The relationships you build with your neighbors can impact how they chose to vote. Each precinct is able to have two POs and two POAs. POs are members of the Central Committee and able to vote on party leadership and decisions. If you are interested in becoming a PO, please attend the PO Training on April 9th to see if this role may be right for you! |
 | Â Register for PO Training April 9th Interested in being a PO? This training is for you! Â Register for VAN Training April 12th This training will be required for any new(er) POs wanting access to the database. |
Special District Elections |
Did you know many local special district elections are coming up in May? See our Elections Page for more info.  These local positions, including metro district boards, water boards, and fire boards, play a crucial role in shaping policies that affect education, healthcare, infrastructure, and economic opportunities. Many of these elections are decided by a small number of votes, making every candidate – and every voter – incredibly important. For example in 2023, the Highlands Ranch Metro District Race was decided by 2000 voters!  Did you know you may not automatically receive a ballot? Depending on the election, you may need to request an absentee ballot to be mailed a ballot. Otherwise, you need to go vote in person on May 6th.  These elections require you to request a ballot: Highlands Ranch Metro District South Suburban Parks and Recreation    |   |
