The Lake County Democrats work to elect Democrats up and down the ballot. We help recruit, train, and support candidates. We hold events and trainings to energize volunteers and precinct committeepersons that make them more effective in their outreach.

“I served for a time as the only Democratic legislator from Lake County in the Illinois House or Senate. We’ve worked hard to change Lake County from deep Republican red to Democratic blue. People are understanding more and more that Democrats reflect Lake County values…and the Republican Party simply doesn’t.
