Welcome to the Cape Elizabeth
Democratic Committee Website.
A community resource dedicated to the pursuit of Democracy.
THANK YOU CAPE DEMOCRATS! To all of you that volunteered your time and/or gave money, this victory is yours. Our collective voices have been heard. Our victory this year was due to a vast collection of volunteers and fantastic organization. Cape Elizabeth Democrats worked hand in hand with their friends in South Portland and with the Maine Democrats Coordinated Campaign to turn out the vote by calling homes statewide and knocking on literally thousands of doors in the last several days.
A record 80+% of Cape voters turned out to vote and we overwhelmingly favored our President Elect by nearly 2 to 1 (4,171 Obama to 2,119 for McCain). We are also very pleased to celebrate Chellie Pingree's election to the U.S. House of Representatives. Locally, we are happy to report that term-limited Senator Lynn Bromley's seat will be filled by Larry Bliss -- and that Representatives Cynthia Dill and Jane Eberle both were re-elected with very comfortable margins. Finally, we celebrate the re-election of County Commissioner Dick Feeney. We thank U.S. Representative Tom Allen for his 12 years of dedicated service and furthermore thank him for challenging a strong incumbent. We also offer our gratitude to those candidates that ran against our candidates. We know that those that seek elected office are public servants who are willing to give their all for their community.
Join us in helping President Elect Obama in his quest to transform this nation through citizen action, wise public policy, and hope.
