Message from Joe Garcia: New Chairman of Miami Dade Democratic Party

Dear Democrats of Miami-Dade,

I just want to say thank you to all DEC members and particularly the elected officials who showed up last night to have a voice in the future of our party.

Change is a good thing! We will not be looking backwards. There will be no finger-pointing or bad blood from me or my team. We are all part of the Great Democratic Family.

I couldn't be prouder of the energy and passion displayed last night. We must harness that excitement and turn it into action. In the month of March we will be registering voters with the Black Caucus at Florida Memorial College & MDC-North. We will try to have a sit down lunch with our entire roster of Democratic elected officials in Dade County. And we may well do a lot more...Stay tuned!

We should reenergize the committees and bring in new members to serve. Party building takes the whole team to be effective. Whatever our differences may be, we are all part of the same family. I hope you will join me in creating positive change in America. It starts right here in Miami-Dade County!

Finally I would like to thank my opponents, Bill & Cindy and their teams for a fun election. Both Bill & Cindy are great Democrats who have served this party with honor and distinction. I know we can count on them and their supporters to continue to be involved with our political & field operations.

Take care my fellow Democrats!

Stay in touch and be ready to fight!

See you soon,

Joe Garcia
