2005 — Successes to Celebrate

With your help, the Wake County Democratic Party was able to:
Hire a full-time Executive Director
Launch the finest political website in the state
Publish our first-ever Party brochure
Recruit and train candidates for municipal office
Provide a wide range of campaign support including hosting candidate websites
Run strong Get Out The Vote efforts for both the October and November elections
− our volunteers knocked on 3,500 doors
− our volunteers personally called 5,200 voters
− we mailed over 35,000 pieces of candidate information to voters
− we called 80,000 Democratic households to remind them to vote

As a result of our efforts, 2005 was a great year for Wake County:
Two Democrats were elected to the Wake County School Board, producing a 5-4 majority
Raleigh’s Mayor and four Democrats were re-elected to the City Council, and a sixth Democrat was elected, giving a 6-2 majority
The incumbent Democrat was re-elected to the Cary Town Council
Democratic Mayors were re-elected in Fuquay-Varina and Zebulon, and a Democratic Mayor was elected in Garner
Democrats were elected to town councils across Wake County

2006 — A Vision for the Future

With hard work and smart campaigning, 2006 will be the year we send a resounding message across Wake County and all the way to the White House that Americans have had enough. We can:
Take back a majority on the Wake County Board of Commissioners
Elect a Democratic Sheriff
Retire Russell Capps and the other out-of-touch Republicans in Wake County’s legislative delegation
Keep our three Democratic congressmen in Washington
Elect good Democratic judges at all levels.

In 2006 we need your help to:
Organize all of our precincts
Strengthen our regional groups
Carry out a Democratic census
Attract more Republicans and Unaffiliated voters to the Democratic Party

Aren't you tired of the Republican agenda of corruption, financial irresponsibility, and disregard for human rights and civil liberties?

Please send your contribution now to the Wake County Democratic Party. Your contribution of $500, $250 or $100 will help us organize to win big in November. Join the Wake County Democratic Party in making 2006 a breakthrough year where Democrats take back Wake County!
