Dear Presidential Candidate
Dear Presidential Candidate: Thank you for running to receive our Party’s Presidential nomination. The energy and unique perspective you bring to this race will make our Democratic Party stronger and more vibrant as we prepare for what is surely the most important election of our lifetime. While Democrats must give our all to defeating Donald Trump in 2020, we cannot lose sight of the less glamorous work that comes after this election: Building a sustainable Democratic Party infrastructure that will remain beyond the 2020 election cycle so that we can win elections up and down the ballot which will help support the agenda of our Democratic President. We must build to win and build to last so we can grow our Party into the future. The way we do that is by building and supporting strong State Democratic Parties. That’s why, on behalf of the Association of State Democratic Committees (ASDC), we are writing to ask for your support of and signature on the enclosed Pledge to Support State Democratic Parties. This Pledge was passed unanimously in Santa Fe, New Mexico this June by ASDC members – made up of the Chairs and Vice Chairs from all 57 State Parties (all 50 States + DC + 5 U.S. Overseas Territories + Democrats Abroad) – and is being shared with all candidates for the Democratic Presidential nomination. We ask that you and your team consider this pledge and reach out with any questions. We hope to have all 2020 candidates’ signatures on this pledge no later than the upcoming ASDC / DNC meeting taking place August 21 – 24 in San Francisco. -

2017 from Democrats Abroad Answers of Raymond Buckley
RAYMOND BUCKLEY Questions for the DNC Chair Candidates - 2017 From Democrats Abroad Answers of Raymond Buckley 1) Why are you running for DNC Chair? In order to achieve the America we believe in – one that provides opportunity and justice for all – we need to elect more Democrats across the country. The DNC must be radically reformed into a much more effective engine to support and strengthen the work of state and local party organizations, including Democrats Abroad. As a vice chair of the DNC, I have been frustrated by the way it operates and its focus on only presidential elections, at the expense of other critical down-ballot elections. I believe my experience as a State Party Chair, as the President of the Association of State Democratic Chairs, and as a former elected official makes me the right person at this point to make the changes that need to be made. 2) How would you describe your management style? What is your relevant organizational management experience? Would you work as a full time or part time Chair, and if part time, how would you manage? I strongly believe that to effectively manage a large, diverse organization like the DNC, the chair needs to share decision-making and delegate responsibilities. My detailed proposals for restructuring the management of the DNC are included in my reform plan. For ten years, I have successfully led the New Hampshire Democratic Party through several winning election cycles in a purple state. I would be a full-time chair of the DNC and, for me, chairing the DNC is not a stepping-stone to some other opportunity. -

Violation of the Express Terms of the Conciiiation Agreement In the Conciliation Agreement Mr. Guinta and the Guinta campaign expressly agreed that "[djuring the 2010 campaign, the Friends of Frank Guinta and its treasurer acting in his official capacity did not properly disclose that the funds Guinta loaned to his committee were drawn from accounts held in Guinta's parents' names" and to the FEC's conclusion "that Friends of Frank Guinta accepted excessive contributions as a result in violation of 52 U.S.C. -
Democrat Brown Failed to Follow Her Own Advice
Democrat Brown failed to follow her own advice Marty Trillhaase/Lewiston Tribune When Sally Boynton Brown, the executive director of Idaho's Democratic Party, announced she would seek the national party chairmanship, she could not offer a record of success. Idaho Democrats have not won the governor's office since 1990. They haven't elected a U.S. senator since 1974. And no Democrat has won the state's presidential vote since 1964. Even worse, the party suffered the loss of four more legislative seats last fall. What Brown could provide the Democratic National Committee was an insight into how and why people much like those in her own Western state - middle and working class, white and conservative - would vote in sufficient numbers in just the right precincts to hand the White House to Donald Trump along with the House and Senate to the GOP. Brown has first-hand knowledge about people who feel abandoned by the political elites; who feel mocked for their culture, their religion and their reverence for the Second Amendment. That set her apart from most of her competitors, including Congressman Keith Ellison, D-Minn., Fox News personality Jehmu Green, South Carolina Democratic Chairman Jaime Harrison, former Labor Secretary Thomas Perez, New Hampshire Democratic Chairman Raymond Buckley and South Bend, Ind., Mayor Peter Pete Buttigieg. All of which makes Brown's comments to a gathering of Democrats last week inexplicable. Appearing with her fellow candidates at George Washington University for a DNC forum focused on responding to the Black Lives Matter movement, Brown said: " ... My job is to listen and be a voice and my job is to shut other white people down when they want to interrupt. -

Town Report 2020
Mason New Hampshire Annual Report of the Town Officers For the Year Ending December 31 2020 2020 Town Report Dedication This year the 2020 Mason Town Report is dedicated to the hard-working volunteers of Mason’s Broadband Committee. Committee members Bill Schongar (Chairman), Mike Judge, Lee Lemoine and Joe Havens worked tire- lessly to bring high-speed internet to the residents of the Town of Mason. The committee, established in 2019, began their efforts by researching high-speed internet options for Mason. They then identifed the percentage of underserved households in Mason to identify Mason as an “unserved” area under the FCC’s Broadband Standards. Bill Schongar After much information gathering, the committee established Mason as an unserved area. That opened the door for Mason to seek taxpayer approval for a special bond under Senate Bill 170. The committee developed an RFP (request for proposals) — a detailed document of the specifics for internet services. The RFP was sent out to numerous internet service providers. Mike Judge During the RFP process, money was made available for inter net upgrades through the government Corona Virus Relief Fund for unserved communities in New Hampshire. Mason was one of the towns selected by Governor Sununu to receive a full inter net build-out at no cost to the town in large part because of the work of the Broadband Committee in already establishing Lee Lemoine Mason as an unserved community. The RFP process was stopped, and the committee’s attention turned to developing lines of commu nication with Consolidated Communications for the town build-out.
