Welcome to the Lancaster City Democratic Committee's Official Website!

John Graupera, Chair

Welcome to the Lancaster City Democratic Committee's Official Website! We hope that you will enjoy our site and that it encourages you to contribute to the committee's growth. Contact us if you wish to learn more about our organization.

We are a dynamic organization consisting of Democrats of all backgrounds and viewpoints looking to make a difference in Lancaster City. We are open, inclusive, accessible and principle-based. We are committed to following a lawful, democratic process to excite and engage all citizens.

We envision a Democratic Committee that seeks and embraces broad community and workforce input to formulate its platform. We work to make our Democratic Party a strong and inspirational voice to communicate our message of expectation and empowerment. We strive to align our values and beliefs with our actions.

As Chairman, I hope to continue the influential work of our past leadership. They, with the commitment of our members, have expanded the role and importance of our organization in the community. Our success will be measured by our ability to attract a vast number of women and men to serve the Democratic Party’s ideals and to recruit, elect and support good leaders to govern and guide us - today and tomorrow.

Best Party in Town

Kendra Saunders, Vice-Chair

Springtime means new Democratic Committee persons and a growing party! The following individuals will be on the ballot as new Democratic Committee persons in Lancaster City: Randy Carney (2-2), John McClure (4-1) Josh Redd (5-1), Bonita Redd (6-1), Blanding Watson (7-7), Robin Hopkins (7-7), and Emmanuel Jean-Philippe (8-5). If you see them please say hello and welcome them to the best Party in town!  Of course, we also have our trusty regulars, which will also be on the ballot. Where would we be without them?

For those of you on the ballot for the primary on May 18th, I recommend being at your polling place during peak periods (7-9am and/or 5-7pm) in order to introduce yourself to your neighbors and ask for their vote (keep in mind only registered Dems will see your name of the ballot). We will also have some information materials available at the polls so that you can help answer questions that voters may have. Thanks for all of your help, and if you have any other questions for me, please feel free to contact me at kendrajeansaunders@yahoo.com.
