ARC Better Practices
| I have subtitled tomorrow evening’s Better Practices conversation “Passion, Data, Plan, Organize.” We are often strong on the Passion part and sometimes slight the harder work. Not so with the North Central Democrats. Join us to hear how Chelan/Douglas, plus Okanogan, and Grant counties organize the confusing business of doing local politics. The series title is Better Practices, not Best Practices. We each have our own experience with what works well. Join us to learn from your colleagues and to share your own experience. Don |

Quiet competence. That is what the North Central Democrats are about. And perfect for communicating Better Practices. Karen Keleman and Bill Miller, now retired and succeeded by Rick Acosta, have long organized Douglas and Chelan counties carefully and with intent. Karen and Rick will describe their planning and execution next Thursday.
A special guest, Alma Chacón, I hope, will be able to join us. Alma partners with Karen and Rick and brings knowledge of organizing the Hispanic community in north central Washington. Alma will help us understand what is hope and what is real for Democrats mobilizing Hispanic voters.
