March 22nd Spring Fundraiser

We are eight months away the general election, but the Strafford County Democratic Committee is already planning a campaign to support state and federal candidates up and down the county, and we need resources to open campaign offices and support candidates.

The Strafford Town Democratic Committee will host a presentation by Attorney Andru Volinsky on the topic of "School Funding & Property Taxes in New Hampshire" on Tuesday, March 3, at 7:00 p.m. at the Hill Library (1151 Parker Mountain Road) in Strafford, NH.

 Mr. Volinsky was the lead attorney in the landmark Claremont school funding case. He is talking to people throughout the state with the goal of informing New Hampshire citizens about the current school funding system and the inequities it imposes on students, property taxpayers, and the economies of many local communities.

We've upgraded the look and function of the Milton Dems website!

The new site should be faster and more responsive, whether you are on a desktop, laptop, tablet, or trying to get information on your phone. The new mobile version has greater visual appeal and provides more function over the old mobile version. We also added a better slider to showcase or feature important information.

We think all of the elements and features should be fully operational again, although we still have the add the other local committees links again. If you find that something is not presenting or is not working please let us know. Thank you for your patience during the update!
