Grand Opening of 2024 Election Headquarters in Auburn
On Sunday, August 18, AADC held our Grand Opening for our new 2024 Election Headquarters Building. Located at 161 Palm Ave, Suite 9, in Auburn, it’s a great space for our organization, with many rooms of all sizes.
Our Headquarters will be open Monday through Thursday from 10am to 4pm, and Friday through Sunday, from 11am to 5pm. All are welcome!
Our grand opening was very well attended. It was organized by our very effective Headquarters Team of Gail Bartlow, Charlie Riley, Leslie Moonshine, and Sandy Floyd.

A Message From Our President
Terry Rodriguez, September, 2024
SUCCESS: The AADC Auburn HQ Now Open for Election Year 2024
Now The Final Mission: Elect Our Candidates!
The Grand Opening of our Auburn HQ was a euphoric experience for all of us who made it happen. Everyone who attended also seemed to be having a great time. This is a big achievement not only for AADC, but also for all Democrats who reside in the Auburn area. Opening our new HQ concludes one of the many goals I wanted to achieve as AADC President, in reestablishing our community presence since the pandemic period. The Auburn HQ is the “icing on the cake.”
In the beginning of my three-year odyssey as AADC President, there was much work needed to restore the AADC back to community Democratic Party prominence. I still give thanks to former AADC President, Ed Koons, for keeping our organization going through the pandemic years.
Please Help with Our Website!
By Charlie Riley, Communications Committee Co-Chair
The AADC Communications Team would like to invite you to help refresh our club’s website. Luann Wellborn made a great suggestion that we have more Auburn focused pictures on the site. We would like that, so we have expanded her suggestion into a contest open to all our members.
We are asking AADC members to send in 1 to 2 submissions for a new Home Page Banner Picture between now and October 1st. We will select the winning picture and then use the other submissions throughout the website. This will make all the pages of our website more fun and interesting. Please send submissions to info@auburnareademocrats.com. Submissions should be landscape format and preferably high resolution. By submitting your picture, you are releasing the club to use the image on its website and other social media.
Questions are welcome! Please contact

A Joyous Return to Sierra College Campus!
By Leslie Moonshine, AADC Registration Team at Sierra College
Our Voter Registration Teams started back at Sierra College the week of August 21, and, just as we had hoped, enthusiasm abounds! (That goes for both students and our volunteers. We had so many new folks volunteering that we had to ask some people to switch days so we wouldn’t overwhelm the students!)
As always, we are using our signature surveys to engage students in meaningful political dialog. We are also promoting our incredible candidates up and down the ballot. In fact, we have an entire second table in our booth just to provide candidate information and swag! We leave plenty of room on the tables for our ever popular snacks, too!
Sierra College Voter Registration Team Receives Award!
AADC’s own Sierra College Voter Registration Team was recently honored by the Placer County Democratic Party 2024 Roosevelt/Kennedy Dinner, held on August 17th. They received the award for Community Activism.
The Auburn Area Democratic Club congratulates the Sierra College Voter Registration Team members Gail Bartlow, Sandy Floyd, Leslie Moonshine, Mark Havener, Rebecca Campbell, Noelle Felice-Smith, and Robert Sheriff for this well-deserved achievement.

More About Project 2025
By Pat Ferguson,
Indivisble Auburn
Trump knows that Project 2025 is highly unpopular. He has been trying to say that he doesn’t know who wrote it or who is involved. However, the majority of the participants are ex-Trump administration members. He has also been filmed flying on a plane with the main organizer of Project 2025, and he spoke at a conference about how great it was that the Heritage Foundation and others were writing a plan for him. In fact, Trump is specifically mentioned over 100 times in the document.
Are you wondering how to let friends and family know how Project 2025 will affect them if enacted? Click this link to visit a website that has specific ways that Project 2025 hurts residents of each state. Project 2025 is a plan to gut America’s system of checks and balances in order to enact an extreme, far-right agenda that would hurt all Americans.
Activism for the Introvert
By Pat Ferguson, Indivisible Auburn
Are you looking to do something that doesn’t require meeting or phoning people you don’t know? Or are you canvassing already and want to add an activity that you can do at home in your “free time?” Here are some options for you.
Neva Parker has a postcarding program going on. She has preprinted postcards that you just write a short script. The postcards come in packs of 25 and are available in the AADC office or by contacting her campaign.
Indivisible Auburn and AADC are doing Vote Forward letters that go to infrequent voters in targeted races. Sometimes it is to voters in a congressional race, but in every case the race is a toss-up that can be tipped by getting out the vote.
