The Democratic Information Center had its Grand Opening today. The Center is located at 110 S. Main Street in Lehighton, and it will be available for candidate training, Democratic club meetings, and volunteer recruitment. The Center is located in the old Elks Building in the office that had been the Obama and Cartwright headquarters.
In past years when County Democrats had a headquarters, they closed it down after the election was over. This time a group of county residents decided to maintain a presence in the County and keep the office open. Fifty activists showed up today to celebrate the new Center. This is a big weekend for Democrats in Carbon County. Monday we will have another round of parties to celebrate President Obama’s inauguration.
Meanwhile, Carbon Republicans have met to discuss “Agenda 21,” an attempt by the U.N. to take over the County through zoning and property maintenance laws. I’m not kidding.
