Here's What We're Doing for Now

Conventions Postponed and Rejiggered

The annual convention of the Polk County Democratic Party (which had been scheduled for March 28) has been postponed until Saturday, April 25, and it will be held online. This change applies to all 100 counties and has been mandated by the Executive Council of the state party. As you can imagine, they're still working out the details. The local parties have very little control over the process, but I am very confident that we'll be able make it work. Stay tuned: when we know more, we'll pass it along! 

The district convention, which had been scheduled for April 25, will now be held on May 16. It too will be held online. As with the county convention, we'll tell you more as we learn more.

Meetings and Events in Polk County

Here's what we're NOT doing:

We will not be holding any in-person meetings or events until further notice: no Polk Democratic Women's meeting, no Community Breakfast, no in-person county convention, no in-person executive committee meeting, no in-person trainings, postcard parties, phone banking, etc.

Here's what we ARE doing:

We will hold our monthly executive committee meeting on Thursday, April 2 at 7:00pm. It will be held online using the Zoom system. Don't be intimidated: it's very easy to participate. You will need a fairly up-to-date computer OR a fairly up-to-date smartphone. When it's time for the meeting to start, just click on this link: https://zoom.us/j/8137268049. Be aware: Zoom uses the camera on your phone or computer, so we'll all be able to see each other!
