So, we noticed a little spike in traffic over the weekend. If you are one of our new first time visitors, we would like to say, "Welcome."

Because of a technical oversight by the consultant who built and hosts our website, the metadata for DLCC.org (the information describing our website) wound up repeated on the site for another organization -- Accountable America, Inc. We noticed the error on Saturday, and our consultant fixed the issue immediately.

While you are here, however, I want to tell you a little bit more about the DLCC.

As our name would suggest, we are a campaign committee. We work to elect Democrats to the nation's state legislatures.

We do that in a couple fundamental ways.

First, in conjunction with legislative leaders and supporters in the states, we organize and maintain winning, state-of-the-art, local campaign committees. Our political directors work with these local partners and national allies to help our candidates win in all regions of the country.

Second, we work to build economies of scale for basic political tools like polling, communications, research, and online fundraising in order to make them accessible for candidates at the state legislative level.

While you're here, why don't you take a minute to read more about us. And if you support our mission, we'd love to hear from you. Leave a comment or send me an email (compton[at]dlcc[dot]org).

And if you feel like making a contribution, we promise that your donation will go to help Democratic candidates at the local level win important races.
