Harnett County Democratic Party

 

 

We can never forget our history as a country. This land contains the blood of those who fought for basic human rights. Years, decades of struggle to bring into reality our country's statement that: All men are created equal. 

The Harnett County Democratic Party acknowledges and honors Black History Month. 

We won't disappear and we won't go peacefully back into the past. 

So get educated, stay informed, pay attention and act

Did You Know that the Harnett County Board of Commissioners have drafted a proposal to ban schools from being used as Voting Sites?

Did you know that Commissioner Brooks Matthews is the author and force behind this proposal?

Did you know that Commissioner Brooks Matthews is also the Harnett County Superintendent of Schools?

Did you know that once the people spoke out about this blatant abuse of power, the proposal was tabled until March?

Did you know that this proposal was written without Commissioner Barbara McKoy knowing anything about it?

Did you know that this proposal was written without any input from the Board of Elections?

Did you know that the securing of safe, public spaces to be used as Voting Sites is one of the mandated duties of the Board of Elections?

Did you know that Brooks Matthews tried to slide this proposal through without public knowledge or opportunity to comment?

The HCDP Election Cycle Strategy Session was productive. We came up with some great ideas on where to put our focus and direct our energy. We are the "people". We, the people, will defend our constitutional right to "LIFE, LIBERTY, AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS." 

Harnett County Democratic Women are in Full Swing Mode!

The HCDW reorganized last April and hit the road running! In the last year we had a yard sale, we raffled a quilt, we worked the polls, we sent postcards, we participated in phone banking, canvassing, and had a presence in multiple county festivals. We even marched in the Denim Days Parade in Erwin, Elaine Marshall marched with us. 

In addition to these group projects, members participated in rallies and other organized events both locally and nationally. The HCDW have pledged to maintain their presence and to use their voices to resist this endless war against women. 

Ask yourself this question, "Am I ok with being less than a man in the eyes of the law?" 

If you answer, "No", or even if you want to know more, please join us on Saturday, March 1st from 10-12, for a Tea Party Brunch. Check out the Calendar of Events for details. 

 

 

 

 

Let's not forget SB382 which stripped the incoming Governor of the powers of office. They did this once before during Governor Cooper's term. One key, vital element was veto power. That's how this bill was passed in the first place. Governor Cooper vetoed this abhorrent bill but his powers of absolute veto have been removed. 

The Democratic Party is actively resisting against these extreme partisan power grabs on many levels.

 

The Harnett County Democratic Party will continue to participate in local governmental meetings, and we will continue to stay united in our common goals. We will always move forward.

 

Stay Connected! Come to one of our general meetings or events. The Harnett County Democratic Women meet monthly, we welcome new members. There is also a Veterans Group and a Young Democrats Group. Check out our CALENDER OF EVENTS for all the details. 

 Look for us on Facebook! We'd love to have you in our community.
