North Tampa Dems
A better future for all shaped by the values of the Democratic Party
Who are the North Tampa Democrats
The North Tampa Democratic Club was founded in May 2021. It is chartered with the Florida Democratic Party through the Hillsborough County Democratic Executive Committee. Our members represent all parts of the North Tampa area including but not limited to Carrollwood, Citrus Park, Forest Hills, Lake Magdalene, Lutz, Northdale, Uptown Tampa, and Westchase.
Mission of the North Tampa Dems
As Democrats and residents of the North Tampa area of Florida, we want to educate and inspire voters, develop community relationships, and elect Democrats to improve the lives of all by promoting responsible, forward-looking, and inclusive governance to achieve the values of the national Democratic Party within our community.
Club History
The first unofficial meeting of the North Tampa Dems was in June 2019 at the Lake Magdalene Manors clubhouse – and 40 people showed up! This was a clear sign that Democrats in the area desperately needed a club to bring together like-minded individuals and get Democrats elected.
Over the next two years, Precinct Captains in the area continued to plan and host meetings, trainings, watch parties, voter registration events, and canvasses. After much urging from the Chair of the Hillsborough County Democratic Party, Ione Townsend, we hosted our founding meeting in May 2021. We began with 29 founding members and we have continued to grow since!
Thank you to those who have been giving tirelessly to our cause since 2019: Leslie Dougall-Sides, Keith Erfurt, Renee Goldstein, Dori Kane, Sandy Moy, Michael Spangler, Jennifer Srigley, Kathy Steele, and Nancy Sterngold.
