Message from the Chairman:

2008 was an incredible year for local Democrats. The intense primary election was a flurry of activity that brought many new people into the political process. I was proud of the effort of the many local volunteers for the Clinton and Obama campaigns.

As great as the effort was during the primary, it was eclipsed as we all came together in the fall in unprecedented numbers. The enthusiasm and excitement grew as the historic election on November 4th approached. Democrats in Lebanon County proved we have a voice and a presence. Our core group of volunteers has ballooned, and we now have unlimited opportunities going forward.

The reality of running qualified candidates who can win seats at the state and local levels has arrived. It is important to remain involved and stay active to continue the transformation of local politics. I would like to extend an open invitation to all Democrats to attend our meetings, get involved and make a difference. Continue to engage your friends and neighbors so that we can continue the growth of a party that truly represents the people of Lebanon.

Please check our website often to keep abreast of our scheduled social and political events. We will see races for Lebanon City Council, Court of Common Pleas and Mayor in 2009. 2010 promises a high profile U.S. Senate race, races in the 101 and 102 state house districts and a race for the state senate seat in the 48th district.

I look forward with great excitement and the warm thought that I have many new Democratic friends!

Christopher Tarsa
Chairman
Lebanon County Democratic Committee
