What We Do

Waldo County Democrats are active year-round to elect Democrats up and down the ballot. We organize and train volunteers, connect them with candidates and campaigns, help educate voters on local and national issues, and support good causes across Waldo County, bringing Democratic values to our community.

What We've Been Up To

About WCDC

Our Mission

The Waldo County Democratic Committee aims to promote the ideals and principles of the Democratic Party, to aid our government at every level to function effectively as a true democracy and a government of all people, and to support Democratic nominees and elect them to local, state, and federal office. 

Our Headquarters

Our office will open mid-June at 22 Searsport Avenue, Suite 102, in Belfast, Maine. Hours will be posted here.

Our Membership, Meetings and Officers
