Barron County Democrats launch new field organization

In response to Democratic National Committee's call for greater grassroots participation, the Barron County Democrats have voted to form a new grassroots field organization. The new field organization's objective is to locate potential Democratic voters, organize them, and summon the resources to promote Democratic candidates and causes in Barron County.

The new field organization will place a "local captain" in each of the 29 supervisory districts of Barron County, who will serve as a liaison between the county and residents of the supervisory district. Among other things, the local captain will coordinate voter registration drives and seek potential Democratic voters, as well as recruit candidates for all manner of offices, and assist them in their races. Other potential projects might be to provide a forum for a candidate or issue, or promote letter-writing campaigns to local papers on issues of interest.

For more information on the new field organization, one can write to Jerry Schlei, Communications Committee chair.
