Huntington New York Democratic Committee: It has been said by Will Rogers that "We don't belong to an organized political party, we're Democrats." And later, another great Democrat said, "If the Democratic Party was in France, it would be five parties."Maybe these men were right, but we believe that this is our great strength - our ability to hold a variety of opinions on a topic without being exclusionary or divisive.We are indeed a great tent where people with many varying views can come together and exchange ideas and work toward the common goal of caring for people by providing GOOD GOVERNMENT. We respect each others differences, and celebrate the variety of life experiences which have helped to create the dazzling mosaic that is the Democratic Party. Individually, we may not have it all, but TOGETHER we have the keys to successful governing. We hope that this website will provide an interesting introduction to our Party and that through it you may be intrigued enough to perhaps join us at our monthly meetings or on the Campaign Trail OR BOTH.
