December 11 Holiday Party Includes Club Business

At the November 27 Club Meeting, members decided to conduct business at the December 11 Holiday Party. Two items will be considered.

  1. The club will take action to elect our representation to the Contra Costa Central Committee. We have two individuals interested in representing the club as Representative and Alternate. If others are interested in these two positions, they should let the club President Janet Abelson know (ecdc.pres@gmail.com) and attend the Holiday Party. Business will start around 7:30PM.
  2. The club will take action on endorsement of California Democratic Assembly District Delegates (ADEM). These positions are elected in January 2019 to represent us at the State Democratic Party conventions and executive board meetings. Seven (7) women and seven (7) men are elected. People interested in getting the ECDC endorsement should arrive at the Holiday Party ready to canvass the room for endorsement votes.
