Welcome GrandCountyDems.org, the website for the the local affiliate of the Democratic Party in beautiful Grand County, Colorado.
The Grand County Democrats support our county’s people and our nation’s officials, from the president to our local county commissioners, as we strive to recover from this brutal recession. Our other goals include defending our mountains’ majesty by protecting our rivers and natural resources while promoting our local economy and jobs for our residents.
Meetings: The Grand County Democrats currently gather the first Wednesday of every month in the community room of the Granby Library, with a pot luck dinner at 6 pm and a meeting from 6:30-8:30. We also have a variety of other events and get-togethers. For a complete listing and details , please click here.
Elections: We are currently focused on the upcoming Democratic Primary on August 10th and the General Election on November 2nd. For more details, please click here.
Along with our excellent slate of statewide candidates, we want to make sure Grand County voters know about our local Democratic candidates. We have two strong candidates for our Colorado statehouse:
- Jeanne Nicholson, is running to replace Dan Gibbs in the State Senate (District 16), and
- Steve Ivancie is running for the State House of Representatives (District 57).
We also have a contested primary for Grand County Commissioner, District 3, where Peter Ralph is running against Bob McVay.
