VoterPalooza: An issues and candidates forum

Statement of Purpose


On September 20, 2008, at the Municipal Office Center in Port Huron, The SCCDP will participate in VoterPalooza, an issues and candidates forum focusing on the major themes of the 2008 election. VoterPalooza will provide voters a chance to hear advocates for four political parties as well as candidates from four local races. We are inviting representatives of the Democratic and Republican parties to participate. From the parties' advocates, voters will hear the parties' positions on the two overarching issues of the campaign: the economy and national security.


From candidates, voters will get side-by-side comparison. With VoterPalooza, we hope to stimulate voter interest and encourage people to use their right to vote in this important election, perhaps the most important presidential contest in generations. The right to vote for our national and local leadership is a fundamental feature of our American citizenship. By providing voters information about Democratic, Republican, Libertarian, and Green party ideas for how best to stabilize our economy and keep us secure in a troubled world, and by focusing attention on four local races. By participating in this event, the SCCDP hopes to generate excitement about the democratic process and increase voter turnout in St. Clair County.

When Marilyn Merrick, Chair, St. Clair County Democratic Party, passed away March 20, 2008, she left behind her family, friends, and her compatriots of the SCCDP. As for Marilyn’s SCCDP legacy, it is impossible to quantify. Marilyn knew that our country was approaching a tipping point and she accepted the job of building up the local Democratic Party and getting it ready to work for positive change.

Matt Wuchte, SCCDP member, stated, "Marilyn spent the last years of her life putting an amazing amount of effort into recruiting motivated Democrats to further the fundamental principles of our party. I feel privileged to have been one of those people."

Judy Morris, Treasurer, SCCDP, said, "Marilyn really wanted St. Clair County Democrats to come together and work together. We are on that road now. As we move ahead, we will always be thankful for Marilyn.
