Democrats Announce New State Website

From Daniel Parker
State Democratic Chairman

I'm very excited to let you know that the Indiana Democratic Party website has a new look -- and plenty of interactive options to make it easier for you to connect with Democrats in your community.

The website address -- www.indems.org -- is the same, but you should find the content and design much more user-friendly than before.

In addition to all of the information that was available on our old website, here are a few of the features we've upgraded and added:

Social Networking -- find Indiana Democrats on Facebook and MySpace; check out and share photos and videos on Flickr and YouTube; sample some of Indiana's political blogs

Party Information -- read about the history of the Indiana Democratic Party and learn more about the party rules

Video Clips -- Watch videos featuring Indiana Democratic candidates and elected officials

Event Planning - Submit your local party events

Get Local -- Find out what's going on in your county

Contribute -- Help support the Indiana Democratic Party with a one-time or recurring donation

News and Press Releases -- Keep track of Democrats in the news and learn more about the party's message

Volunteer -- Sign up to volunteer at Indiana Democratic Party events

This is going to be an exciting year for Hoosier Democrats as we work to maintain control of the Indiana House of Representatives and re-elect our Democratic members of the U.S. House of Representatives while fighting to take back the White House and the Governor's Office.

Our new website is still a work in progress, which means we need your feedback to make it even better. We're counting on you to be our eyes and ears as this election cycle heats up. Winning elections is never easy, but we believe that by working together, we can build on our Democratic principles and create a brighter future for all Hoosiers.

Please feel free to send your feedback on and ideas for the new website to Jennifer Wagner at jwagner@indems.org. We welcome your input and hope you will be able to use these new tools to spread our message to every corner of the state.
