Our Goal

The Solano County Young Democrats (SCYD) are the youth based arm of the Democratic Party within Solano County. We are here in order to promote Democratic values and elect the individuals that live by them. In order to accomplish this we will do what we can to spread the Democratic youth message and elect candidates who support our societal interests.

Brief History

The Solano County Young Democrats was officially started in the summer of 2012 by individuals who recognized that the voice of Solano’s youth was not adequately represented in the local political scene. It was their goal to gather young people together in order to discuss and actively promote the Democratic youth interest in Solano’s political forum. SCYD advocated for Democratic candidates by spreading the message and getting involved in political campaigns. Many of us worked to elect Democratic Congressmen, Assemblymembers, local candidates, and to pass core Democratic legislation. We are also proud to have one of our founding members run for Mayor of Merced in 2013. We are committed to getting our members in the political process.
