Elbert County Democratic Party
"Providing Real Solutions for Elbert County"
February 17, 2025 was President’s Day and “ No Kings in America Day” . This was the day set for peaceful protests, to state capitals in all fifty states, for the purpose of expressing our objections to the actions of our current president and his loyalists. More specifically, we object to the unjustified firings of government workers, the cruel treatment of immigrants both legal and illegal, the disrespect for constitutional norms, the lack of respect for the rule of law and the government actions of an unelected billionaire.
The United States of America as it has existed for almost 250 years is becoming unrecognizable. We are headed to losing our democratic freedoms and losing the respect of the world’s democratic nations because of an ignorant Executive Branch, a complacent Congress and a corrupt Judicial system.
All we have left is our numbers and our voices. And that was evident at the protest and march in Denver on Monday, February 17th. All different ages, from all different walks of life, from different parts of Colorado joining together and peacefully voicing our objections and concerns as to the state of our country.
Included in this group, was a delegation from Elbert County. Small but powerful we withstood the cold and the snow and chanted and marched with our fellow Coloradans. What was amazing about the participants was their politeness and friendliness. Complete strangers offering to share water and hand warmers. No pushing or shoving, no trying to get ahead. This in a microcosm is the America that we know and want to protect.
Elbert County citizens, Dems and otherwise, please join us in participating in future peaceful events. Regardless of political party, we simple folk in Elbert County want all the same things; Peace, Freedom and Security for ourselves and future generations.
Please join us. Don’t give up your voice or our democracy will be forever lost.

During these difficult political times we need Democrats to remain vigilant and to participate in community affairs. While Democrats may still be in the minority in rural areas such as ours, the are many Democratic thinkers among the Unaffiliated ranks. We must engage our neighbors and friends regardless of political affiliation if we are to protect the freedoms and benefits we have enjoyed for over the last 200 years. We must not be afraid to speak up for the values we stand for.
