A new organization was chartered this week by the Ventura County Democratic Central Committee entitled the Democratic Campaign Council of Ventura County (aka Campaign Council.)
“The Campaign Council is designed to help locate, motivate and activate Progressive Democratic Activists throughout Ventura County to work on the various efforts to elect Democrats to public office and support issues of importance, ” stated Campaign Council Chairman Brian Leshon. “Our efforts will support the work of the Ventura County Democratic Party by providing volunteers and infrastructure. Currently we’re working on the setup of the party’s new office, phone bank and campaign efforts. The Campaign Council is planning programs on volunteer and leadership training. Service clubs and organizations of this nature are common in county parties in Southern California. We needed one of our own to help marshal the large number of volunteers wishing to participate in countywide Democratic efforts.”
