About the Committee

The goals of the Kent Democratic Town Committee are:

• To encourage the registration of voters in the Democratic Party

• To identify, endorse and support Democratic candidates for elected office in municipal, state and federal elections

• To nominate and endorse delegates to state and district Democratic conventions

• To promote the positions, interests and principles of the Democratic Party in our community

Our Committee recently voted to adopt the Democratic Creed shown below as a clear statement of our beliefs and purpose:

• We believe all people are created equal and that this is America’s fundamental ideal

• We believe that America is a democracy by and for the people: ruled by the Constitution and its interpretations, protected by the Bill of Rights, and inspired by the Declaration of Independence

• We believe these founding documents demand Freedom, Justice and Opportunity for all Americans in full and equal measure regardless of who you are, what you believe, or where you live.

• We believe that the duty of government is to strive endlessly to make the ideals of Freedom, Justice and Opportunity a reality for all.

• We believe that the purpose of government is to protect our nation, defend our democracy and to promote the welfare of each and every one of us.

• We believe that fighting for these ideals is our purpose as a political party.
