Running in the 5th AD

(I had the pleasure of working with Paula in CA-04. One could not find a more dedicated, smart, hard worker, especially for someone who is a senior in high school. Good luck Paula! – promoted by juls)

Hi everyone.
My name is Paula Villescaz and I am running to be a delegate to the state party in the 5th AD.
This is my first post on calitics, but I read and occasionally post on d-kos. I spent the 2006 election cycle working as a Finance Assistant, helping elect Charlie Brown to congress in the 4th CD. Through this work I became much more interested in party politics and I’ve attended two of the e-board meetings for the state party. I’ve discovered that the state party is largely composed of old buddies who get together to socialize every once in a while, with most meetings being poorly attended and little business getting done in them.

This is why I hope to get a seat in the 5th AD. Business is particularly lame in the 5th AD with there being a very small semblance of a central committee. This party can be alot more powerful and get alot of things done if it has more members that are less interested in playing musical chairs every year and figuring out who is going to move up in their careers. Last month Chairman Art Torres came out with a press release stating the main goals of the party for 2007, and I hope to be a part of the party acheiving these goals.
If you live in the 5th AD please consider coming out and voting for me. The meeting for the 5th is this saturday at 2 pm in the fair oaks library: Fair Oaks Library
11601 Fair Oaks Blvd
Fair Oaks, CA 95628

I hope you turn out!!
