Who We Are
The Santa Clara County
Democratic Club has worked continuously since 1980 for values espoused
by the Democratic Party: the right of all Americans to a job, a home,
education, medical care, privacy, social security, and, of
course, a woman's right to choose.
We draw our membership
from all over Santa Clara County, but most members live in San José,
Santa Clara, and Campbell. The Club is an issues based
organization, the only one in the County that makes its very highest
priority the achievement of
Public
Financing of Elections!
We are also very
active in:
-
Working for
universal, single-payer health care;
-
The California
Clean Money Campaign;
-
Voter
registration;
-
Electing
Democratic candidates;
-
The Santa Clara
County Democratic Central Committee;
-
The California
Democratic Council.

Elections
During
election campaigns our members participate in campaigns by
organizing and participating in phone banks, fund raising, and
precinct walking.
Meetings
General
meetings are held every third Monday of each month (except in one
summer month and in December) in the back room of Carrows
Restaurant, 3180 El Camino Real, Santa Clara. Watch our home
page for details of upcoming meetings.
The
Executive Board meetings take place on the fourth Wednesday of every
month at the Headen-Inman House, 1509 Warburton Avenue, Santa Clara.
These meetings are open to all members.
Events & Activities
The
Club has several fundraising events throughout the year including a
summer function and a winter holiday party. SCCDC endorses
candidates running for office, donates money to worthwhile
campaigns, and works to elect Democrats to office. The Club
also works on voter registration.
