ABOUT OUR DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE Welcome from the Chairman ... learn more about our committee and what our members and volunteers do to help: Mission Statement: Our focus is electing Democratic candidates, while helping workers, families and individuals realize that the real power lies within the hands of the people. Executive Board: The elected officers of the Greene County Democratic Committee. Committee People: Your elected representatives in the Greene County Democratic Committee. There are two Committee person's positions for each precinct in the county. Interesting Fact: Donkey Political Symbols. The donkey gained its acceptance as the Democratic symbol in 1874 as a result of Thomas Nast's cartoons in Harper's Weekly and Ignatius Donnelly's remark in the Minnesota Legislature, "The Democratic party is like a mule--without pride of ancestry or hope of posterity."

WHY VOTE DEMOCRATIC? The Democratic Party is the party that fights for working families, not special interests. Throughout its history, the Democratic Party has been a leader in advancing the goals of this nation. Examples of this are: Social Security and Medicare Family & Medical Leave Federal Aid for Education The New Deal Women's Suffrage Minimum Wage Acts Eight Hour Work Days The Voting Rights Act The Civil Rights Act Landing a Man on the Moon Environmental Protection With the exception of Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt, every single progressive piece of legislation enacted into law has been a result of the Democratic Party. This means that the more Democrats we elect to local, state and national level office, the greater the chance of moving this nation forward. As we prepare to move into the next millenium we must have progressive leaders that will fight for working families. This is the core of what the Democratic Party & Democratic candidates represent. This is why you should vote Democratic! of Greene County
