Alaska Young Democrats

We are young--and WE will change tomorrow!

About Me

The Alaska Young Democrats (AYD) is the official youth arm of the Alaska Democratic Party.

We are the future.

Young Democrats work to:
• Elect Democratic Candidates
• Encourage youth involvement in the Democratic Party
• Support the ideals of the Democratic Party at all levels of government
• Instill young people with the values for which the Democratic Party stands
• Provide young people with the skills and experiences they will need to lead our nation

Young Democrats receive first-hand experience in campaigns and elections, grassroots organizing, fundraising and candidate elective office, just to name a few. Many of the Democratic Party's leaders got their start in politics with the Young Democrats.

My Interests

Gov. Tom Vilsack talks to the College Democrats of America on the role that we young people will play in upcoming elections.What are you doing to make sure young voters are the difference-maker?

Senator Evan Bayh directly addresses Young Democrats and talks about our new strategies for political & social activism. It's a feel good vid, but if you need justification to take that next step of getting involved--peep this video.

Listen to this! The video is dark, but there are some great ideas coming from other states--. With your help, the Alaska Young Democrats can innovate and create the type of home grown solutions that work best!

This is a debate beteen the Young Democrats and the College Republicans (NOT IN ALASKA).

I'd like to meet:

Anyone under the age of 36 who wishes to be known as a Democrat.
