Keep the Blue Wave Rolling – 2019
2018 was a busy election year and our club played an important part with Flipping the 49th. Our club hosted a debate early in 2018 among the initial candidates in January, many of our members volunteered for the Mike Levin campaign, and we had strong support for the Solana Beach and Del Mar GO Teams.
We hope that our programming inspired you this past year. And as always, we welcome your ideas to grow and improve our club.
We are excited to continue our discussions on immigration, ranked choice voting, understanding the impact of millennials on this past election at a local & state level, and environmental topics to name a few.

What is the responsibility of an AD Delegate?
AD Delegates to the Democratic State Central Committee (DSCC) are responsible for planning and attending informational meetings throughout the region and working with other DSCC delegates throughout California to represent their community. AD Delegates vote on behalf of the community they represent at CDP Regional Meetings, the California Democratic Party Convention, and those who are also elected to serve as an Executive Board member are responsible for voting and representing their community at the semi-annual E-Board meetings.
