We work to elect Democrats, strengthen the party, and improve it from within.

Why Join DCC

The Democratic Club of Claremont is the voice of the 11,500 registered Democrats in the city of Claremont.  We work to elect Democrats, strengthen the party, and improve it from within.  Together, we elect Democrats from up and down the ticket – from President of the United States to Claremont city council.  We write endorsement questionnaires, interview candidates, issue endorsements, and support our endorsed candidates with door knocks, lit drops, phone calls, postcards, and more.  We take positions on legislation, lobby our legislators in person, hold them accountable for their votes, and make them earn our support year after year.  We discuss policy.  We debate.  We influence party decisions.  We vote.  We are active in our communities.  We improve our community.  We host events and build community among ourselves.  We are the party’s grassroots.

    • Claremont and Las Vegas

    What happens in Vegas does NOT stay in Vegas. 

    It will affect millions of Americans for years or decades to come.  Nevada is one of seven battleground states critical to winning the 2024 presidential election.

    We have a charter bus -- with limited space -- going to Las Vegas twice.  We're going Oct. 11-13, then again Oct. 25-27.  (Registration is now closed.)   

    This is our opportunity to prosecute the case for Harris and arrest Trump's threat to our democracy -- and to do it where the electoral votes are truly up for grabs.

    We'll join our Claremont-based friends from UFCW 1428 and go straight to our hotel on the Las Vegas Strip.  We'll receive training on Friday, then go out Saturday and Sunday in teams of four with veteran UFCW union activists to persuade voters to vote for Harris (and to reelect Jacky Rosen to the US Senate).  Bus ride and hotel included

    No prior experience necessary.  Work hard.  Have fun.  Feel good.  Show the world DCC members in action.  Register today. 

    h/t UFCW 1428 for the heavy lifting and organizing, and for their gracious invitation

    A smash success from 2022 returns to DCC on Nov 2 -- just three days before election day.  The Karl Hilgert Day of Action is DCC's final GOTV push.  Fun, food, friends, bring the family.  Named after Pilgrim Karl Hilgert, a talented local activist and community organizer, who founded the Claremont Homeless Advocacy Program and was director of a homeless shelter, among other things.
