Gregg County Democratic Party Launches Redesigned Website

Today, the Democratic Party of Gregg County, in East Texas proudly launches their newly redesigned website.

This site will provide tools for supporters across the county to become more involved with local campaigns and to give them online access to candidates, elected officials and each other. Democrats will now have a place to go to find all the democratic events happening in their community and around the county.

Featuring links to the new Gregg County Election website, citizens will quickly access information of Democratic candidates and office holders across their community as well as the state and nation, including candidate information, upcoming events, and local party information.

“These days people are extremely busy and have limited time, so it is important that our supporters can find all of their local events in one place in order to stay informed and involved, said Jim Cogar, Incoming Chair of the Democratic Party of Gregg County “We are excited that this site will allow more citizens to be involved and informed.”

Texas Democratic Party Fellowship Program

The Texas Democratic Party (TDP) has begun a fellowship program to train the next generation of Democrats. They have begun a Texas Democratic Party Fellowship program that will provide resources to assist the county chairs and at the same time serve to train the next generation of leaders.

The idea is to match up college age young people with fellowships in counties to help them organize as we head into the Fall campaign.

Counties who are interested in this program are asked to contribute $2000 to help pay for the program. The TDP will provide the training courses at the beginning of the program as well as regular check-in calls and site visits.

Gregg County has decided to participate in this program, and in partnership with Harrison County will raise $1000 and share the fellowship, with the work being done out of Harrison County Democratic Party Headquarters on E. Grand St.

"We are asking the democrats of Gregg County to pledge any amount that they can spare so we can join in this worthwhile project," said Cogar.  "I know that we can count on the supporters here to make this idea a reality in Gregg County."
