WHO ARE THE DULLES DEMS?
The Dulles District is made up of 14 precincts (areas into which our county is divided into for voting; each with its own polling place). We are one of eight magisterial districts that are part of the Loudoun County Democratic Committee.
Everyone is welcome to attend and participate with the Dulles Dems; there is no membership fee.
We meet on the second Thursday of each month at 7 p.m. at the Gum Spring Library. Our candidates and elected officials frequently attend meetings to get to know the issues that are on our minds.
WHAT DO THE DULLES DEMS DO?
We work to elect Democratic candidates to public office (Virginia has elections EVERY year!), especially in the Dulles District, and to ensure our values of democracy, freedom, equality, public good, justice, citizenship and natural environment are intrinsic when our representatives develop policy.
