***IMPORTANT: Delegate Confirmation*** If you wish to be a delegate for the National Convention and you haven't yet confirmed your interest, please do so by clicking here. Any questions? Drop us a line at indianayoungdemocrats(at)gmail(dot)com. Frequently Asked Questions Q: Who is eligible to be a delegate? A: If you were born on or after August 9, 1973, you can be a delegate to the convention. YDA rules state "Young Democrats" as those 35 and under. Q: I'm not able to make it for all four days. Can I still be a delegate? A: YES! If you're able to make it for Friday and Saturday, you can still be a delegate. Q: What happens if I'm not selected to be a delegate? A: We'll have a waiting list of those who are not selected to be delegates, however, that doesn't stop you from attending the convention! There will be useful trainings, great speakers and networking opportunities, so even if you're not a delegate, GO! Q: How much does it cost to be a delegate? A: With the convention in our backyard, it'll be the cheapest convention ever for Indiana YDs. Four nights hotel (~$175/quad occupancy) plus registration and banquet will be $300! The state organization is working to raise money with the intention of covering hotel and registration costs for the entire delegation. However, with the costs so low, it's EASY to raise money to cover your share. Use the Personal Fundraising Packet to help track pledges and share information about the Convention with friends, family and colleagues. Young people turned Indiana blue for President Obama in 2008 -- now let's celebrate in his old neighborhood and show other YDs from around the country that IYD means business. See you in Chicago! In solidarity, Shaunica Pridgen President, Indiana Young Democrats P.S. You MUST confirm your interest in being a delegate by Wednesday, July 29th to be included in our official list.
