Good afternoon Young Democrats,


Let's walk doors in Riverside! This Saturday, in conjunction with Coachella Valley Young Democrats and Pass Young Democrats, we’ll be walking doors for Will Rollins for Congress and Christy Holstege for State Assembly. These are both key swing district races. If we want to flip the House and build on our legislative majorities, this is what it’s going to take. We need to reach out to voters in key areas. The California Young Democrats will provide room accommodations for Young Democrats that need lodging. RSVP here!  

Make sure to vote on our internet ballot! Pursuant with CYD Bylaws, the CYD State Leadership Committee is conducting an internet vote to consider approving various endorsements, including California Statewide Ballot Propositions and Local Young Democrats running for office.


The vote will close Monday, September 2, 2024 at 11:59 PM!


Chapter Presidents and Caucus Chairs needing to appoint your duly chartered member representative for your second vote should email CYD Secretary Emily Bonner at [email protected] and indicate the name of the member you are appointing.


Per CYD Bylaws, eligible voters are: all CYD Statewide Officers and CYD Regional Directors; CYD’s Immediate Past-State President; the President of each duly chartered chapter and one (1) appointed chartered member of their chapter of a differing gender (whenever possible); the CCD President; the CASHD President; any officer of YDA, CDA, or HSDA residing in California who is a member of a chartered CYD chapter; any DNC Member who is a member of a chartered CYD chapter, any elected CDP Officer who is a member of a chartered CYD chapter; and the Chair of each duly chartered CYD Standing or Special Caucus and one (1) appointed chartered member of their caucus of a differing gender (whenever possible).


Please contact your CYD chapter President, caucus Chair, or your CYD Regional Director if you have questions regarding any of the items being considered.


If 25% or more eligible voters vote to "Postpone" any item or write-in a recommended race/name/position to "Postpone" consideration of, that item shall not be considered until the next in person meeting.


All endorsement votes require a 2/3rds majority approval vote of those present and voting.
