| This is the official web site of the Piatt County Democratic Central
Committee. The Committee has an official function of finding candidates for local and
county offices and assisting them in their campaigns. We also promote the campaigns of
Democrats running for state-wide offices, our Democratic Senators and Representative in
Washington, and Presidential candidates. WE ARE your friends and neighbors, and like you, are interested in having good candidates running for the various local offices in our county, and providing good government for all of us in Piatt County. We welcome all county Democrats, as well as members of any political party (or no formal affiliation) to our public meetings. Join us in 2010 for a stronger, more active Democratic Party in Piatt County! |

-- "I have been thinking that I would make a proposition to my Republican friends... that if they will stop telling lies about the Democrats, we will stop telling the truth about them." Adlai E. Stevenson
-- "To announce
that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the
President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable
to the American public. Nothing but the truth should be spoken about him or any one else.
But it is even more important to tell the truth, pleasant or unpleasant, about him than
about any one else." Theodore Roosevelt, Kansas City Star, May 7, 1918
