County Democratic Committee
MESSAGE FROM FRED HUDSON, Chair,
Albemarle County Democratic Committee:
The month of May is shaping up to be a significant month in
the campaign process. We have another deadline on May 2, when those wanting to be delegates to the Democratic National
Convention must prefile for the election by 5 PM . The first election of those interested in being a
delegate to Denver will be at
the 5th Congressional District Democratic Convention on May 17th in Lovingston. There, we will elect four
delegates, one male delegate for Clinton ,
and one male and two female delegates for Obama and one male alternate for
Obama. We select an elector to possibly
participate in the Electoral College to determine the next President of the United States . We will also be nominating Tom Perriello to be our Congressional
candidate in the 5th District. It should be quite a day for the 170 delegates who have been elected by
their local committees from around the 5th. We are working very hard to ensure that the
convention goes well for all participants, and that it is a positive experience
for those who have taken their time to be a part of the process. Should be an exciting day, and I am looking
forward to seeing all the delegates there. The convention begins at 11 AM , and those attending should arrive at 10 for registration, at the Nelson County Middle School Auditorium. The convention will lasta
couple of hours. It should be fun for
all and a great “grassroots” expression of the will and aspirations of the
folks in Albemarle County
and the 5th Congressional District.
The delegates representing Albemarle County are as follows:
For Obama For Clinton
Casey Beeghly Diane
Abbott
Jennifer Case Katherine
Acuff
Pam Cochran Charlotte
Dammann
Martha Dawson Renee
Grisham
Rhoda Dreyfus Gary
Kendall
Christopher Dumler Wanda

Tracy Federman Carol Rasmussen
Jim Heilman Emily Reijmers
Fred Hudson Peter Reijmers
Jackson Landers David Slutzky
Mary Martin Jean Wyant
Elizabeth McMartin Millicent Young

Sallie Kate Park Paul Newland (Alternate)
Dallas Pitt
Roberta Platts-Mills
Laura Ramirez

Jennifer Sulzberger
Gordon Walker
John Wertman
Christopher Williams
Cauline Yates
Andres Archila (Alternate)
Betty Black (Alternate)
Ralph Dammann (Alternate)
David Dawson (Alternate)
Doris Lackey (Alternate)
Charles Mathewes (Alternate)
Cheryl Oliver (Alternate)
Renee Sottong (Alternate)
The delegation is a mixture of new people to the process as
well as some who are very experienced. That is the nature of the campaign, and our representation is very
reflective of the current interest in the 2008 process. I look forward to working with all the
delegates to be sure that we have a strong representation from Albemarle County at the 5th and
State conventions as well as the National Convention. It should be a fine season for the Albemarle
County Democratic Party.
Thank you for your participation and we should have a
wonderful month as we move along through the process of selecting our next
President, Senator, and Congressman from the 5th District.
You will also want to SAVE THE DATE of June 20th. The Annual Dinner for the 5th District
Democratic Committee will be that night in Lynchburg . We are busy making the arrangements now, and
I will give you much more detail in the edition of the NewsClips next
month. You will be hearing much more
about the dinner over the new few weeks. Stay tuned!
Fred
