To all the brave activists and leaders who stood up in 2017 and 2018 and made the decision to run as Democrats in today’s elections: thank you.
This is a critical time in the history of our country. It has never been more important for qualified citizens to step forward and offer themselves as public servants in each of the local, state, and federal offices for which tens of thousands have already cast ballots locally and many more will do today.
No matter the enthusiasm, no matter the anger, no matter the energy, a mid-term election would be for naught if we did not have choices on the ballot. Win or lose, you have given the voters of our county and state a reason to show up to the polls and a mechanism by which to push back against grave affronts to decency, good government, and responsive representation.
In 2016, only 19 Democrats were on the ballot in Washington County; in 2018, you doubled that number to 38 – having contested nearly every office on the ballot. You are giving people a choice today for a future that is full of hope – hope for our public schools, for a healthcare system that works for everyone, and for a country that believes that all of us are equal in the eyes of the law.
For that, we, the Democratic Party of Washington County, offer our sincere gratitude to each of our Democratic candidates – and to the voters who will go to the ballot box today. Be a voter – exercise your right to choose your leaders today.
Sincerely,
The Democratic Party of Washington County
