8th CD Democrats organization created
I attended the organizational meeting of the new 8th Congressional District Democrats held at the Auburn Machinists Local Union Hall Tuesday evening.
Turnout was good considering the agenda was mostly grooming the by-laws and electing officers. I rode to the event with my Lake Hills neighbor Dave Thomas.
We arrived a bit early and met our soon-to-be chair Brian Kesterson (47th LD Chair and PCO) and a few early birds including Karen Willard (31st LD/Pierce County SCW)
The meeting was called to order at 7 PM by temporary chair Bryan Kesterson.
After some discussion, an initial set of bylaws for the organization was adopted and the 14 people present joined the organization.
The following officers were elected by acclamation:
