Special plug to vote for the following candidates for the Santa Cruz County Democratic Central Committee (DCC). The DCC is a primary gatekeeper for who gets elected to City Councils and other local offices. If we want more progressive candidates with a chance to win we need progressives on the DCC itself to lift up those candidates and policies.

If you want to fight for working people and an inclusive community, vote for the names below and ONLY these names. Even if the ballot asks you to vote for 5 or 2 select ONLY the candidates below to give us the best chance of having our values represented. Candidates shown below in the order they will appear on ballot. You get your ballot first week of February.

We wanted to send out a huge thank you to everyone involved in the campaign!! It took over a year from start to Election Day to make Measure N happen and we are so grateful for those of you that were with us along the way!

While we await the results of the election (due on Friday 11/11 at 4pm) we hope that you all are taking time to rest and regroup after all the hard work and effort. One of the most important things this campaign created was community and it already feels like winning!
