Questions & Answers

1. What would you do to increase the number of voters registered in your party?

Utilize new technology that allows registration of voters via iphones/ipads, continue to staff booths at fairs and other large gatherings so that voters can easily access registration forms.

2. What would you do to help the campaigns of candidates of your party?

I have worked on many campaigns, from local to national, knocking on doors, making phone calls, writing letter to the editor and I plan on continuing with these actions.

3. Why did you become a member of this political party?

I am a Democrat because the Democratic Party represents working Americans, people who know what it is like to struggle each day to pay bills, people who have worked hard all their lives and need a strong government to provide a safety net in difficult times. I am a Democrat because I believe in the separation of church and state, because I strongly support the social issues in the Democratic Party platform and because I believe that the Democratic Party best represents the people of this country in government.
