(Atlantic) Cass County Democratic Party Chair Sherry Toelle says in an on-going effort to engage the voting public in understanding the policies, procedures, and growth of the Iowa Democratic Party, the Cass County Democratic Party will be holding meetings open to registered Democrats in February and March; people can register as Democrats prior to the meetings.
On February 16 at 7 PM, the 2021 Odd-Year Caucus will be held. The purpose of this caucus is to nominate committee persons to fill precinct vacancies and to begin precinct-level planning for the remainder of the year. Also discussed will be constituency caucus groups within the IDP, such as Labor, Veteran, LGBTQ, Women, Senior, etc. Planning topics will include growing the party, maintaining relationships within the party, and local races for which to recruit candidates.
March 16th at 7 PM will be the 2021 Biennial Organizational Meeting at which time the Cass County Executive Committee will be elected/re-elected for a two-year term. Democrats who wish to be considered for nomination as Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary, Treasurer or other positions, should contact current County Chair Sherry Toelle at shtoelle@gmail.com or 712-243-4861 for further information.
These two events signal the beginning of the 2022 election season. It is a great time for Democrats or would-be Democrats to become involved within the party. Questions can be directed to Toelle via email or phone.
Both meetings will be held virtually. Notices will be emailed to those interested in attending either meeting, regarding sign-up.
