California Democrats stood by our values this election, and made a statement about what progressive leadership means for our state.
It’s never been more important to join our diverse, progressive coalition of Democratic grassroots leaders.
We keep winning in California because our party is run not from our headquarters in Sacramento, but by thousands of dedicated Democrats from all parts of the state and from all walks of life. If you’ve been waiting to take part, now it could be your turn.
Will you help shape the future of the California Democratic Party by becoming an Assembly District Delegate for the 2017-19 DSCC term?
There are over a thousand delegates selected through this process, and over a thousand reasons why they decided to run.
Each of California’s 80 Assembly Districts elects 14 delegates, 7 men and 7 women — and that will happen on January 7 or 8, 2017. Click here to find the Assembly District Election meeting (ADEM) in your Assembly District.
A person may only apply to run as an ADEM candidate if he/she: is registered to vote as a Democrat, residing in their Assembly District by October 24, 2016 in the state of California. You may only run in the Assembly District that you were registered in, by the aforementioned deadline, unless the person turned 18 or was naturalized after the deadline.
A person may participate and vote in the ADEM if they are: a Democrat residing in and registered to vote in the Assembly District, as of the date of the Assembly District Election Meeting. Same day registration is allowed of otherwise qualified citizens, who currently reside in the Assembly District they wish to participate in.
