Questions & Answers

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

I believe the number of registered members of the Democratic Party will continue to rise if we successfully explain the value of the Democratic Party, how it differs from the alternatives, and how its values lead to more effective solutions. I have encouraged the creation of material documenting the value of the Democratic Party. I have used new media to publicize democratic solutions to a wide audience. I have also encouraged the Democratic Party to diversify its traditional voter registration outreach to bookstores, theatres, and events. I have organized, led, and participated in many of these events. I will continue working in each of these areas to successfully bring n new voters.

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

I help local and national candidates by fundraising, precinct walking, and calling on their behalf. I have also hosted events to provide voters the opportunity to meet candidates in a more intimate setting.

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

The Democrat Party believes that Americans are greater together than we are on our own--that this country succeeds when everyone gets a fair shot, when everyone does their fair share, and when everyone plays by the same rules. I am proud to support a Party that believes in these values.
