from chair, Lynn McClintok
​
Sign up to volunteer today with the Harney County Democratic Central Committee!There are so many ways to help. We’ve got room for you in our family of volunteers, and we can’t wait to hear from you.
Your support is critical as we work to elect Democratic candidates up and down the ticket, and build the Democratic Party of Oregon all across the state. Look at the short list below and email us at Hcdcc2019@gmail.com to let HCDCC know your interest in getting involved. We’ll put you in touch with Harney County Democrats in our community with details on how you can help.

Ways to help your local Democratic party: 
  • Canvassing and knocking on doors
  • Make dedicated phone call per the election list provided by DPO/VAN
  • Become a Neighborhood Leader
  • Running for local office in Harney County, ie., county commissioner and or PCP
  • Running for State or Federal office, ie. State House District 60, State Senate District 30, or US House OR CD2. File deadline is March 10, 2020.
  • Placing campaign signs in your yard, putting campaign stickers on your car, or wearing campaign buttons/shirts
  • Write letters to the editor; supporting why it is important to vote, support democratic values, etc. 
  • Make a monetary donation to support HCDCC outreach during this election cycle to cover printing and postage costs - our address is P.O. Box 292, Burns, 97720
  • Make a pledge to VOTE at DPO.org 
HCDCC will have an active elections committee during the 2020 election cycle. But we can't do it without the support of all of you, our  fellow Democrats. Isabelle Fleuraud, our dedicated  Elections Committee and Neighborhood Leader Program coordinator, strives to reach out to all registered Democrats to encourage them to GET OUT AND VOTE!  Isabelle has been actively seeking information regarding the candidates running for state and national office. We will continue to update links to the candidate websites as the May 19th primary approaches.  Below are the Democratic primary candidates for OR CD2 thus far:

1) Jack Howard from La Grande

A report for the Election Committee 

The most important, proven tool of all to elected Democrats is knocking on doors. This is how we Oregon Democrats have, over the past decades, forged Oregon Blue. In that spirit, HCDCC will be organizing three rounds of canvassing this important election year:

1) Reaching out to Non Affiliated Voters (NAVs) in Burns and Hines, mid-March through mid-April, to educate and encourage them to change their NAV registration to Dem. We believe that being able to vote in this year's presidential Democratic primary will be a good incentive. The deadline to do so is April 18, 2020. All NAVs in Burns and Hines were canvassed by "Jamie volunteers" in 2018 with mostly good responses. The DPO has created an excellent user-friendly MiniVAN app, which allows any volunteer with a smart phone, to canvas from any geolocation without needing to have a specific turf cut-out for them in advance. Please contact Isabelle at isyfleuryoga@gmail.com if you are interested in volunteering using this format. 

2) Reaching out to registered Democrat voters, through the Neighborhood Leader Program (NLP); is another format that has been successful in past elections. This program encourages them to vote in the May Primary.  This canvas will occur between the first day to mail ballots, April 29, and election day, May 19, 2020. Please contact Isabelle at isyfleuryoga@gmail.com if you are interested in becoming a Neighborhood Leader or doing this with the title of Neighborhood Leader.  The easiest way to participate is with a smart phone using the MiniVAN app, but it can also be done using paper maps and lists which we would provide.

3) Reaching out through the NLP to our Democratic neighbors from mid-October to Election Day,  to get out the Democratic vote in the 2020 general election. (Through specific campaigns, we may also organize or participate in other canvasses between May and October.)**************************************************
