PA Dems launch revamped website

For all our Democratic friends.

It is with great pleasure that I announce the launch of the Pennsylvania Democratic Party’s new website and online community. ... We officially launched it this past weekend at our annual convention in Harrisburg to great audience response. And now I want to make sure you know about it and take advantage of all it has to offer.

The website address has stayed the same, www.padems.com. On our homepage, you will find links to updated news articles and press releases, as well as top stories and announcements of the day. A news crawl at the bottom of the page allows you to keep updated on the news of the day throughout Pennsylvania. The menu bar running under the top photo is your gateway into the many new functions and resources that make this a true online community.

The resources include the About, Elected Officials, and Links menus. These offer a variety of links and information about our Party, our elected Democrats and our Commonwealth. ... Our Take Action and Events pages are interactive and provide you with the ability to become involved in the Party. They offer you a number of opportunities, including volunteering to help with campaigns, spreading the word about our site, signing up for text message alerts of breaking news and announcements, and submitting local events for inclusion in the Party’s calendar. ... It is you, the members of the Pennsylvania Democratic Party who will truly make this site a community.

T.J. Rooney
Chairman, Pennsylvania Democratic Party


A professional job

The party finally outsourced the web site and my one quibble with it is that the links to the county web sites no longer work. Now to get things fixed there’s an added layer of bureaucracy.
