Join us at the Blue Hill Fair!

Staffing our booth on the midway is an easy and fun way to help our candidates! Sign up with MaKayla (610-5025) for a volunteer shift. Shifts for Thursday and Monday are all set, but we are looking for people to take 3 hr. shifts on Fri. 9/3, Sat. 9/4, and Sun. 9/5. Meet lots of interesting people and talk to them about why it's important to VOTE DEM this November!

HCDC Passes Resolution on Afghanistan

A Resolution was passed at our January meeting, and forwarded to the Maine Democratic Party for consideration. The text of the resolution is here.

Phil Winograd

We sadly note the loss of longtime HCDC member Philip Winograd of Hancock. Phil was active in the Democratic Party for more than eight decades. He was a WWII veteran, a keen observer of national affairs, and a beloved friend of many in our community.
For Phil's obituary and address for cards, please visit this page.

Election 2009

HCDC thanks the many volunteers who worked on the No on One campaign. 53% of Hancock County voters upheld the rights of all Mainers to marry the person they love. This was the second highest margin in the state (after Cumberland County).

While the statewide loss was heartbreaking, many more people became aware of the equality issue through this campaign. We will continue to work towards the day when all Mainers enjoy equal protections.

We also thank the many volunteers who helped to defeat TABOR 2 and the Excise Tax initiative here and statewide.

Statewide results on all the referenda questions are here. A PDF file of Hancock County results on Question One may be downloaded here.
