Our Time is Now

The Young Democrats of Georgia is proud to support Josh McLaurin for Georgia State House District 51 and Sarah Beeson for Georgia State Senate District 56. These two Young Democrats have enthusiastically supported our work and are ready to continue the fight under the Gold dome. Please join us on Saturday September 19th for a phone bank shift with other Young Democrats and these two super stars to turn Georgia blue! Sign up for either the 10a-12p shift, the 12p-2p shift, or both. Can't wait to see you there!

South Carolina YDs Sound the Alarm

This election has gained national attention and we are All In! There is no secret that Lindsey Graham must go and in viewing the polling of this race, we recognize that we need all hands on deck. 

The Young Democrats of America have partnered with the Young Democrats of South Carolina to create a Young Democrats of America All In Day for Jaime Harrison. We will be doing phone banking and text banking. Young Democrats from all across the nation will come together.

Join us in helping flip the Senate and working hard to elect Jaime Harrison as the next US Senator from South Carolina. We need to win in every state. Help South Carolina so they can help us!

Star Studded Event for Biden

Join Vietnamese Americans for Biden (VAfB) as they launch their effort to rally and organize the Vietnamese American community and allies to elect the Biden-Harris ticket.

Hear from the first Vietnamese American Congresswoman Stephanie Murphy (D-FL), Vietnamese American elected officials and dignitaries, and Biden Campaign Surrogates Director and former figure skating world champion Michelle Kwan on why electing Joe Biden as President is critical for Vietnamese Americans and how you can get involved with the campaign.

Speaking of Vote By Mail

Georgia allows all voters to request absentee ballots and vote by mail for any reason. We encourage all our members to request their ballots now for the November election and send them back ASAP. You can check your voter registration, request your absentee ballot, check your ballot's status, see a sample ballot, and more at the Secretary of State's website. Requests may now be submitted entirely online! Voters who submit their requests by the end of this week should receive their ballots by the end of the month.

YDG Appointed Positions

The Young Democrats of Georgia doesn't have a staff budget... yet. But we need to fill these positions now! If you have experience on a campaign or with an advocacy organization and are interested in leveraging your talents to support Young Democrats, we need you! Please email YDG President Rachel Paule if you are interested in any of the following positions. 

• YDG Communications Director
• YDG Press Secretary
• YDG Activism Director

Become a Poll Worker

Poll workers (as opposed to poll “watchers”) are paid positions with your county of residence.  We need good people working in polling locations across the State who are committed to providing access to the polls!

The counties train you, pay you, and you get to see the inner workings of election administration.  Expect to work a full day on election day, and during the early vote period as well. To apply, you must be at least 16 years of age, and a resident of the county in which you are applying to work, and able to read, write, and understand English.  You cannot be a candidate for public office, hold public office, or the close family member of a candidate or holder of public office.
