Carbon Democrats Approve Headquarters

Tonight the Executive Board of the Democratic Party authorized the rental of a headquarters at the corner of South and First Streets in Lehighton.  The Republican Party already has a headquarters on the same block, but ours is larger and handicapped accessible.  
All Democratic candidates who are victorious in the primary election are invited to use the headquarters for phone banking, meetings, and other campaign activities.
In the summer months campaign workers will work on registration, volunteer recruitment, and obtaining photo IDs for seniors and the home-bound who lack them.  By October the office will be open seven days a week.

  1. Glad to see this has finally come to fruition. Hopefully this will help invigorating the Democratic electorate. Well done!

    1. Its something. I worked out of that building for 14 years during my employment with Lehighton Electronics. It will be a homecoming for me.
      I think it would be good to have an announcement put in the "Carbon County monthly booklet and the Focus paper. Need to let the public be aware and be invited to visit the office. It may cost something since we are not a non-profit organization.
