Welcome to the Democratic Club of Worcester County

The purpose of the Democratic Club of Worcester County is to promote participation in the Democratic Party through voter registration, voting, social gatherings, educational activities, publicity and support of Democratic candidates at all levels.  The club strives to be fully involved in the democratic process in Worcester County and in the State of Maryland and seeks to identify and support candidates for office at every level. 

Since its founding in 1995, our club has grown steadily and now has more than 150 members.  We work hard and have fun.  In addition to monthly meetings we have an annual labor day picnic, a Christmas party and various other events throughout the year.  We frequently collaborate with our fellow Democratic Clubs in the county - the Democratic Women's Club and the Ocean City/Assateague Democratic Club.  Members receive a monthly newsletter.

If you're a registered Democrat consider joining our club, we would love to have you!  In the meantime enjoy browsing our website and finding out more about the club.

Worcester County Again Leads Maryland in Unemployment!

 

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the unemployment rate in Worcester County for November 2011 was 13.7% - the highest of any jurisdiction in Maryland and more than double the state-wide rate.

MD Unemployment November 2011

A lot of the power structure here in Worcester County seems to think this is an okay situation - it guarantees the availability of cheap labor during the summer season.  But what is the impact on our families and our communities?  Good government should serve ALL of our community, not just the well-to-do.

To add to the problem, Worcester also has THE LOWEST AVERAGE WAGE OF ANY JURISDICTION IN MARYLAND!   The latest survey by the Bureau of Labor Statistics showed that the average weekly wage in Worcester County was $519 per week - about 52% of the state-wide average.  That's about $2,249 per month before taxes.  Again, that's good for our businesses, especially the hospitality and retail industries that rely on low-cost labor, but is it good for our communities?  Is it good for our families?
