ADEMS: The Election you've never heard of
The California Democratic Party bylaws (Article VI) provide that an Assembly District Election Meeting (ADEMS) be held in each of the 80 California Assembly Districts in the January of every odd-numbered year to elect 7 “self-identified female” and 7 “other than self-identified female” to be Assembly District Delegates (ADDs) to represent the Assembly District they are registered in. These elections are open to all California Democrats.
Role of Delegates
Together, CADEM Delegates vote and conduct Party business at the yearly State Convention and Executive Board meetings, including:
Election of CDP Officers: Chairman, two Vice-Chairs, Secretary and Controller
Vote for the Endorsements of the California Democratic Party for partisan legislative and statewide offices in California
Vote for Positions on Ballot Propositions (as needed)
Establishment of the official California Democratic State Party Platform (in even-numbered years), and CDP Resolutions
