Ponte Vedra Beach area Democrats held a “One Year Out” fundraiser Nov. 3 at TPC Sawgrass Clubhouse. It was a joint event for the Ponte Vedra Democratic Club and the Blue Wave Coalition of St. Johns County.
The social featured appetizers, cocktails, speeches and a silent auction. And the mood was celebratory and upbeat.
“We are focusing on our campaign plan for 2020 in St. Johns County,” Erica Connor, President of the Ponte Vedra Democratic Club, said. “This is all about our local efforts.”
“This is our first fundraiser of the year,” said Marie Garnes, Campaign Director of the Blue Wave Coalition of St. Johns County. “We are doing incredibly well with our fundraising, and all of our money stays here in the county.”
The Ponte Vedra Democratic Club is one of six organizations in the county that makes up the Blue Wave Coalition of St. Johns County. Working together to elect leaders who reflect their values at the national, state and local levels, they are planning additional fundraisers to prepare for three election cycles next year: the March Presidential Preference Primary; the August Congressional/Party Primary and the November General Election.
