As we are all so acutely aware, all eyes are on Virginia this November
and with the chaos that ensues on a daily basis, we NEED to win Virginia!
We also have local candidates here in Radford that we need to be sure
we win for the benefit and betterment of our city.
Voting this November is so crucial!
The Radford Democratic Committee met on July 2nd and we discussed sending out a mailer for the election that will have pertinent voting information as well as the state and local candidates on it.
We are aiming to send this mailer out to approximate 1,000 citizens.
Our goal is to send them out to those that may not have voted in the last election
but have voted before for Democratic candidates or those that are independents.
We are asking for donations to the Radford City Democratic Committee to assist with the expenses
of the mailers as we will need to have them printed and then bulk postage for mailing.
Please see the following for information on how to donate.

Thank YOU!
First, I would like to sincerely thank the members of the Radford City Democratic Committee for entrusting me with the role of Chair of the RCDC. Amanda Winter did an amazing job in fulfilling the duties of Chair during her tenure while also running for a seat on our school board. In a very competitive race, we are fortunate that she won her seat. We must support and encourage her now as she steps into her role as a Radford City School Board member next month.
This election year was an incredible defeat for the Democratic Party. While it feels heavy, we must now look to the future. We have to hold our heads high, band together and aim towards electing Democrats into local, state and federal offices. Unification, collaboration and communication is more important now than ever. 2025 will hold several significant races; the Gubernatorial, Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General of Virginia. Here in Radford, we will uphold a promise amongst the Democratic Party to support and elect those that choose to either re-run or run for their offices.
A few of my goals as Chair of the RCDC is to increase attendance at our monthly meetings, gain more members from the Radford community, continue strengthening our alliance with the Radford University Young Democrats and to make sure we have the highest level of organization at every event and meeting where we can have a presence.
The holiday season gives us a time to reflect on the year that is winding down while simultaneously building excitement for the New Year. We must apply this thinking to our efforts in our political aspirations for the Democratic Party. We have so much potential in our community to make change, inspire hope and build a solid foundation for the values that our party believes in. We faced setbacks in 2024 but we must start 2025 with a fresh perspective for hope, freedom and democracy.
If you have any questions, concerns, or ideas, please know that you can always e-mail us at radfordcitydemocrats@gmail.com or connect with us here.
Onward and upward we go!
Sincerely,
Kelsey Marletta
