A Message From Our President
Terry Rodriguez, November, 2024
ELECTION NIGHT 2024
GET OUT THE VOTE – GOTV – CALL TO ACTION!!!!
NOW IS THE TIME FOR ALL GOOD DEMOCRATS TO COME TO THE AID OF THEIR COUNTRY, BY VOLUNTEERING TO GET OUT THE VOTE TO SAVE OUR DEMOCRACY
Election Season 2024 is officially in the GOTV phase. Democrats are in the final action to drive voters to mail in their ballots, drop their ballots off at voting centers, or submit them to their local Placer County Office of Elections.
Our Placer County Democrats have taken a long journey to reach this point in history. Auburn Democrats have also stepped up to the plate by canvassing our area and by phone banking to local and Congressional district voters. Many have volunteered for postcard parties,
participated in fundraising activities, and attended candidate meet-and-greets.
My Two Cents
By Charlie Riley, Co-Chairperson, Communications Committee
Our club has a huge opportunity at this moment in time. Like most of you reading this, I have been reflecting (obsessing) on the current election both nationally and locally. It is critical we recognize three things.
- The AADC has had a tremendous impact on the 2024 election cycle locally.
- We have the ingredients for making a long-term change in our community, both for Democrats and for like-minded friends and neighbors.
- Whether or not we win the key national, state, and local races, in a short 2 years we need to be ready.
Together, we have had tremendous impact on the 2024 election cycle, without even knowing the final tally on wins and losses. We brought neighbors and friends together. We have had volunteers canvassing for months for both national and state candidates, we helped nine local candidates with volunteers, financial support, and expertise. We have provided everything from yard signs for Harris/Walz, to local campaign signs, banners, mailings, and postcard parties. We have created sophisticated phone lists, text messaging campaigns, mailing campaigns, a real office to work in, you name it.
What a Whirlwind of Activity!
By Charlie Riley, Co-Chairperson, Communications Committee
Since the September AADC General Meeting things haven’t stopped with the new AADC Election Office and Down Ballot Candidate Support Program. In addition to tireless canvassing for Jessica Morse and Neva Parker, numerous volunteers have worked to support all our down-ballot candidates.
To share a note from one of our school board candidates:
“Dear Charlie, It has been so inspiring to see how much support our community has for our campaign from the locals who have waved and held signs by Sierra Hills School. Please pass along a big “thank you” from me to the folks who’ve gotten up bright and early and taken time from their days to show how much they care. Running for a campaign is daunting at any level,

Volunteers Turn in More than 4500 Vote Forward Letters!
By AADC Staff
Thanks to Pat Ferguson and many other generous volunteers, an amazing 4500 plus Vote Forward letters went out during the last week! They went to low propensity voters, that is, to individuals who are eligible to vote but have a history of infrequent participation in elections. Engaging this section of the electorate can be pivotal in closely contested races. These low propensity voters were located in targeted states and toss up races. Thanks for this great effort goes to volunteers from AASC, Indivisible Auburn, and the Sierra Foothills Unitarian Universalists.
Revving Up Voting Excitement at Sierra
Leslie Moonshine, AADC Registration Team at Sierra College
The Voter Registration teams are going full throttle with their weekly visits to campus on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Since the start of fall semester in late August, we have registered 154 new voters! While the majority of students still choose No Party Preference, we know from our discussions that the majority lean Democratic in their values!
Our engagement with young voters goes far beyond just registering them to vote. Our signature surveys allow us to draw students in to meaningful conversations on newsworthy topics. We help guide students to reliable sources for information on all political matters,
