Burnt Orange Report

YDA Update

By Katie Naranjo

Both tickets are working very hard to get votes from delegates with shirts, volunteers and buttons. After meeting with Chris Galloway I was very impressed with his knowledge and plans for YDA to help local chapters.

However, training still continues with Rep. Mark Strama leading a training session to bring experience and knowledge to young democrats who plan to work in campaigning. The Democratic GAIN training has been focusing on campaign skills, young candidate training, and chapter building. For more information on GAIN training see http://www.democraticgain.org/

I would like to personally congratulate Erica Contreras for winning her election for Secretary of the Minority Caucus. I also want to wish Shondra Wygal good luck in her election for Vice-Chair of the Women’s caucus, which the vote will convene at 4pm. That is all for now, more updates will be coming.
