Being a woman. One of those women.
by Kathy Coleman (Ruby Precinct)
We have a magnet on our refrigerator which reads, “When women vote, Democrats win.”
It’s not one hundred percent true, of course. There are plenty of Republican women. Still, it rings true when one considers the importance of basic human rights which are put in jeopardy for an individual simply because she happens to be of the female gender, and the truth that Republicans clearly see women as subhuman (no matter what they say, actions speak far louder than words).
March Madness at the LD24 Monthly Meeting
Can you believe it’s that time again? Our monthly meeting is this Thursday (March 9), at 7 pm at the Maricopa County Democratic Party headquarters (2914 N Central Ave, at Thomas). Here’s a sneak peek at what’s on the agenda:
Request To Speak (RTS): Making your voice heard at the Arizona Legislature

Presidential Preference Election 2016 – Who Has Your Vote?
Who Has Your Vote?
Today is Super Tuesday which means the Presidential race is going to look much clearer tomorrow than it does today. We know many Arizonans are getting their early ballots in the mail and are excited for our Presidential Preference Election in 3 weeks on Tuesday, Mar 22, 2016.
In #LD24 our excitement seams to be mostly split between Hillary and Bernie, but we are huge fans of democracy and are happy to have so many options on our ballot. “2 District leaders. 2 Different endorsements.” exclaimed a recent joint statement from our Chair, C.j. Carenza and 1st Vice Chair, Adrian Fontes “While we may not agree on the same candidate in the Primary, we can agree on one very important issue. Whoever the Democratic nominee for President ends up being, we WILL work together, to get Democrats elected in November. From the State House to the White House, every race is important.”
