Chairman's Listening Tour: Colfax County Spring Meet-Up, Raton, NM
The Democratic Party of Colfax County (DPCC) in
conjunction with the Democratic Party of New
Mexico (DPNM) hosted a Spring Meet-Up for Party
members and local activists on Saturday May 26th,
2007.
DPNM Chairman Brian Colón stopped by Raton as
he visited Taos, Las Vegas, and Mora on Memorial
Day Weekend. The weekend of visits was part of
the DPNM’s statewide Chairmen's Listening Tour,
which will be visiting every one of New Mexico's 33
counties.
New Mexico will host a Presidential Caucus on
February 5th, 2008. The DPNM will be charged with
organizing the statewide election and will need to
rely on the volunteer efforts of each of the county
Democratic Party organizations. The Chairmen's
Listening Tour will be Chairman Colón’s first effort
to reach out to the counties and develop working
relationships with active Democrats across the
state.
Garcia and Colón will co-hosted the Spring Meet-Up
and they recognized former Colfax county
Chairmen Gene Sisneros who held the Chair
position for 25 years as well as a handful of Party
officials and activists.
“We want to take an opportunity to show
appreciation for the great Democrats of Colfax
county who are the back bone of our New Mexico
politics”, said newly-elected State Chairman Brian
Colón.
