The Torrance County Democratic Party is dedicated to basic core principles of fairness, justice and reason within overall values of good governance and equal participation and access for all, at local, county, state and national civic levels.
Come join us in this all out effort to transform our county from purple/red to solid blue. We are a work in progress and look forward to respectful dialogue and conversations about how we can create stronger, healthier and more transparent communities.
In brief, we believe in the following:
1. A great society is judged by the manner in which it cares for the least of our brothers and sisters,
2. Pro-Life means that we are in support of life from birth through old age and dignified death,
3. We believe there is plenty to share if all are willing and our national, state and municipal budgets are a reflection of our priorities and principles,
4. We are all valuable and worthy of respect, truth and justice from our elected officials, business communities and public servants,
5. We are responsible for staying engaged with our political and civic responsibilities,
6. We believe that education should be affordable for all, that critical thinking and respectful dialogue are essential ingredients to a thriving society,
7. We support and happily promote businesses that operate responsibly and progressively within the communities they serve and their employees and we also support accountable organized labor,
8. We abhor war, greed and selfishness, and respond to the call for war, only as a last resort, and finally,
9. We can change the world when we speak truth to power, stand up to lies and stop hatred and fear by responding with actions rooted in love, humor, patience, justice and tolerance for one another.
Warning to Trolls: We will respect you and tolerate you until you resort to trolling or flaming about single issues. Ultimately, we reserve the right to remove your postings and/or ban the guilty party.
