My Candidate Statement for California Democratic State Central Committee
In 2010, California Democrats face two statewide contests that could require an unprecedented marshaling of resources:
- It is likely that the Republican gubernatorial nominee will be extremely wealthy and capable of self-funding their campaign.
- Rumors persist that Governor Schwarzenegger will mount a challenge Senator Boxer for her seat.
On their own, either of these races would present a challenging fight. In 2010 we may be called upon to respond to both.
Answering these challenges will demand a recommitment to local organizing in all 58 counties and enhancement of CDP’s use of technology for direct voter contact and messaging.
As an Assembly District Delegate to the State Central Committee, I will advocate for CDP’s better engagement in the grassroots and netroots to successfully defend Senator Boxer’s seat and take back the Capitol.
Drawing on more than a decade’s worth of campaign experience – beginning as a field organizer, and most recently as Senior New Media Advisor to the Obama campaign in California – I will bring a combination of tested techniques and willingness to experiment with evolving tools to carry out the mission of the California Democratic Party – to win elections.
