Democratic county conventions tomorrow
A quick heads-up for readers: Democratic county organizations across Washington State are scheduled to hold their 2010 conventions tomorrow morning.
The state party's website has a list of convention locations. Most county organizations are holding conventions in union halls or at high schools. King County's convention is at an IAM hall, Snohomish County's is at the Everett Labor Temple, and Pierce's is at an IBEW hall. Kitsap's is at Olympic High School and Thurston's is at Capitol High School.
At the conventions, delegates will adopt platforms and resolutions to be forwarded on to the State Convention, to be held this June in Vancouver.
A few county conventions will also serve as joint LD caucuses, which means delegates will be elected to the state convention.
Any registered voter in Washington who considers him or herself publicly to be a Democrat may attend and participate in their respective 2010 county convention, owing to the elimination of the precinct caucuses, which would normally be held first. Precinct caucuses will return in 2012, the next presidential election year, unless the state party chooses to utilize a presidential primary to allocate delegates for the 2012 National Convention.
