ABOUT US
We are local Democrats who are working at a national, state, and local level. We want to see our leaders -- town, county, state, and federal -- embrace sustainability at a fiscal, environmental, and quality-of-life level.
Clinton is part of Congressional District 19, the eighth most rural district in the US and one of the nation's few swing districts. In the 2018 midterm election our district had more canvassers than any in the nation. Roughly 66% of registered Dems in the district turned out at the polls; far higher than the national average of 47%. 80% of Dems in Clinton voted!
Working with others across CD 19, we successfully flipped the district, removing a one-term Republican Trump lackey and electing Rep Antonio Delgado. The previous year we elected a Democrat to our local town board for the first time in many many years.
It is time for change. We can't sit still and watch the erosion of our democracy, the break down of the rule of law, and the slow degradation of our local environment. Clinton needs to enter the 21st century. We need choices in high speed broadband, in sustainable energy, and in candidates for office. We welcome and need your participation!
Please contact us or just show up at our next meeting.

SUPPORT A MOBILIZED TOWN OF CLINTON DEMOCRATIC PARTY
We need funds to support local candidates to run for office in Clinton. We also use funds, twice a year, to rent meeting spaces etc. for our town social events. The Town of Clinton Democrats is 100% volunteer work. Donations as small as $5 and $10 will add up to the several hundreds of dollars we will need to support candidates in 2019 and stay mobilized towards the 2020 election. Thank you for your support.
