We are hoping for a large turn out at our first in person reorganization since 2019.
Remember you only need to be a registered Democrat to attend our meeting
and to nominate yourself or be nominated for office.
You do not need to be a current member of the Central Committee
to submit your name for nomination.
Only the members of the Central Committee can vote.
The Central Committee is comprised of the Executive Committee members,
House District officers and Precinct Organizers in Douglas County, and
Democratic Party elected officials who reside in Douglas County.
We'd like to hear from you as to whether or not you will be attending.

If you are unable to attend and are a voting member please complete a PROXY
so that we can ensure we have quorum to attend to the business at hand
as well to ensure your voice is heard.
Submit your proxy to chair@dougcodems.org by 8am on February 11th.
The following people have submitted their intent to run for office.
Chair - Angela Thomas
1st Vice Chair - Tim Courington
2nd Vice Chair - Mark Jones
Secretary - Lloyd Guthrie
Treasurer - Paula Graham
Deputy Treasurer - Marci Laurvik
HD 39 Chair - Eric Brody
HD 43 Chair - Barry Peters
HD 44 Chair - Sam Jarris
HD 45 Chair - Katie Barrett
Nominations will be open for each of these positions at the meeting
if you wish to nominate yourself or someone else at the event.
There are still spots available on State EC; State CC; CD 4 CC; SD 4 CC; HD 61 CC and JD.
We have had no one step up for our JD spots. This is very important as this is a brand new Judicial District. We can have some impact but we must get involved to do so.
You can place your name into nomination at the meeting
but it would be helpful to have names ahead of time so we can have ballots ready.
