Thurston County Democratic Convention Passes the new 2021 TCD Platform 57-1, the boldest, most progressive platform in TCD history!
In a very successful and fun convention event, over 80 people gathered on a sunny Saturday afternoon on ZOOM to deliberative on what we want the Thurston County Democrats to be fighting for in 2021 and beyond. While some debate took place on last minute additions, there were virtually no statements in opposition to the platform and it passed nearly unanimously, with around a dozen abstensions.
Thank you VERY, VERY MUCH to all those who attended to support this incredible platform. An extra special thank you to those who volunteered in various ways to draft the platform and make this historic event happen!
