35. Reform Slate?

That's interesting. What's wrong that it needs reforming?

[brooklynite]

45. County Committee is as close to machine politics as Nee York gets...

They’re particularly problematic in their endorsement and nomination of judicial candidates, who end up doing “favors” for the Cimmittee leadership.

47. Ah! Got It

[Mr.WeRP]

36. Congrats! Well earned! Keep up the good works!

[JustAnotherGen]

37. Welcome!

It's going to be a tough 6 months.

Being a County Committee member gives you a direct touch with the voters. Get a cell phone specifically for constituent services.

Trust me - just do it. And a personal card with your title/role. King County is huge in comparison to Hunterdon - but I still field at least 20 Calls a week around primaries and GE's.

Also - don't forget to have fun. Democrats Get Things Done!

When is your swearing in ceremony? Do you get your own office or do you have to share with the other 3,600 members of the King County County Committee members?
