News from the Villages

“Take back California”

“We connect Red County organizers with Blue County resources in the form of funds, technology, training and volunteers. We work to elect Democrats to school boards, city councils and boards of supervisors. These candidates are the ‘farm teams’ in their districts, and will be ready to serve in higher offices. We are looking for volunteers at the grassroots level.”
