Democrats of Year for CA Assembly District 55
Jubilant Newsom Thanks TricoDemClub for its Support
Founding TRI-Counties members and past Democrats-of-the-Year Award recipients June Harris and President Peggye Jackson are embraced by the victorious Governor before the recent election. On the right, Party activists Tri-Co Second Vice President, Iris Mann, and Democrats of North Orange County member, Gail Cain, are thanked by Governor Newsom.
“I’m humbled and grateful to the millions and millions of Californians that exercised their fundamental right to vote and express themselves so overwhelmingly by rejecting the division, by rejecting the cynicism, rejecting so much of the negativity that’s defined our politics in this country over the course of so many years.” – Gov. Gavin Newsom
Peggye Jackson Won’t Seek Reelection as Trico President
Hello Members and Friends,
Many years ago I started on the radical path of changing the political path of our community. Ultimately, with encouragement from Sanobar Baig and Gregg Fritchle , and the insistence of my political mentor, Helen Dougherty, I pursued organizing a Democratic Club. This was a great undertaking but I took the challenge and look where we are today?
I am making this announcement with emotions of sadness and joy. As the Founder of this organization and serving many years as its President, I have decided to not run for office this year.
It is time for someone else to take the wheel and lead us to new heights. I have devoted much of my time and care, to contributing to our success. It is now time to move us forward with new energy and dedication.
I hope if you nominate someone for office or when you vote, it will be someone who will do a better job than I did. It’s called growth and we all deserve this! I’ll say my farewells and appreciations later.
Nomination procedures will be sent soon.
Sincerely,
Peggye Jackson
Feb. 16 is Next Member Meeting

Greg Fritchie
Please help us raise funds to retire Gregg Fritchle’s campaign debt. Any donation would be greatly appreciated.
Gregg has devoted many years to try to represent AD55 and most times he was the only one interested in doing so. Last year we had many candidates running for the Assembly; Gregg dropped out due to growing list of candidates. In dropping out early, he was left with a tremendous debt. Please give as much as you can and share this fundraiser with other clubs and political organizations.
