"Just elected, the new chair of the Democratic Party hopes to expand the number of the party faithful in Goochland County.

That’s why Molly Payne was busy stirring up a pot of chili last Friday evening, preparing for the next day’s meeting at the Company 5 Firehouse.

She took over the leadership of the local Democratic Committee last month, replacing former chair Alan Tucker.

I enjoyed hearing from David Hunsicker today at the meeting today. It is important for those of us who feel that the country is not hearing what we have to say to support citizen leaders who want to change the way Washington works. Besides the 7th district, changing the political discourse in Washington is SO important! It starts right here at the true grassroots level. This Youtube video talks about all the new people who want to go to congress to change the gridlock we have seen the last few years. Whether our representative is David Hunsicker or someoneone else working hard for them to unseat Cantor is a BIG step in changing Washington. We need to focus on the best ways to help the primary winner! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAICEeuIJRo&feature=youtu.be
