Annual General Meeting (AGM)

Sunday, May 13^th, 2012

2 PM to 5 PM

Winterthur, Switzerland

Democrats Abroad Switzerland is holding our Annual General Meeting May 13^th, 2012 from 2 to 5 PM and we hope you’ll join us!

At the meeting we’ll discuss the past year’s accomplishments as well as plan the exciting year ahead. This meeting is a great opportunity to get together with other members, meet your Executive Committee, share in the political life of Dems Abroad Switzerland, and get more involved in this important election year! Through the growth of our membership and our Get-Out-The-Vote work, our goal is to impact the overseas 2012 vote for the re-election of President Barack Obama and Democrats across all States. Participate in the two workshops we’ll hold at the AGM to learn how you can help make a difference in reaching this goal.

DACH 2008-2012 video

This is a video we made compiling many of the activities that DA Switzerland organized and participated in since the 2008 Global Primary election through early 2012. We made this video in April 2012 for our outreach to journalists in the Suisse romande region to re-introduce ourselves and the new team in the lead up to our Global Primary and campaign season ahead of us. Since the local media followed us extensively through 2008 campaigning, election night and inauguration of President Barack Obama, this video reminds them of what we do and who we are.
We hope you enjoy it - for our members who have been around for years and frequent participants and volunteers, you'll see some familiar faces!
