Stein Members Elected to DC Democratic State Committee

Last night at its December meeting, the District of Columbia Democratic State Committee (DCDSC) held elections for three at-large vacancies.

Candidates were asked a series of questions targeting their knowledge of the DCDSC, the national Democratic Party, and their stance on key issues.

Of the 10 candidates only two opposed same sex civil marriage equality. One who opposed it personally acknowledged that since the DC Democratic State Committee has endoresed same sex civil marriage equality, that as an elected member of the body they would have to support the issue.

The officers and members of the Gertrude Stein Democratic Club congratulate members Carlene Cheatam and Ed Patillo and long time supporter Betty Pierce on their election to the DC Democratic State Committee.
