The Democratic Precinct Committees officers of the 42nd District gathered on January 10th to elect new officers for the 2015-2016 term. The new leaders are:

Chair: Natalie McClendon
Vice Chair: Tom Brakke
Secretary: Aileen Satushek
Treasurer: Don Starr
State Committee Woman: Teresa Taylor
State Committee Man: Justin Finkbonner

Our State Committee persons will be representing us at the Washington State Democratic Party meeting on January 24th, where they elect the state party leaders for the next two years. These leaders, at both the local and state level, will be responsible for organizing and executing the 2016 Precinct Caucuses, to select a presidential nominee.

The new 42nd District Board will be meeting soon to set goals for the coming two-year cycle. Any Democrat in the 42nd District interested in participating in leadership and decision-making may contact the chair, Natalie McClendon, at 360-319-8287.

The Jan. 10th, 2015 meeting of the 42nd LD Democrats will include an official PCO Call to meet and elect new Officers for the 42nd legislative district.   At this meeting we will hold our biennial re-organization and elect new officers for the 42nd LD.  Only PCO’s who were elected in the last August primary will be allowed to vote.  An official post card will be sent out to those members.  Rules state that the Chair and Vice-Chair must be of opposite gender.  Other positions include Secretary, Treasurer, State Committee Man and State Committee Woman.  We will be taking nominations from the floor.  I will not be running for re-election this year and I hope some of you will step up and keep our organization going strong.

PLEASE MARK YOUR CALENDAR FOR January 10th, 10am, Machinists Hall in Ferndale.  We look forward to seeing you!
