Hello Ward 7:

Yesterday, I had the distinct pleasure of officially being sworn in as the new Chairperson for the Ward 7 Democrats organization. I am deeply honored for this opportunity to serve you in my new capacity and I look forward to our journey together. I commit to upholding the legacy of the Democratic party right here in our Ward and to chartering a new pathway for our future leaders.

The 2021 Ward 7 Democrat special election was this past Saturday, March 27 and resulted in a 45 percent voter turnout increase as compared to the previous election. I applaud the 564 residents who participated and I look forward to working with each and every one of you to continue the momentum and build even more engagement.

I would also like to recognize the “7 for 7” and “Vision 7” slates for the time, effort and energy that they spent over the past six weeks. This campaign highlighted the deep passion to serve throughout the entire Ward and I look forward to working with all Democratic stakeholders who share our vision to advance and restore our Ward to the political powerhouse we once were.

Lastly, I want to share my deep appreciation to the best group of hard-working individuals in Ward 7, the phenomenal Team Ward Seven – your soon-to-be newly elected officers for the Ward 7 Democrat organization:

• Delia Houseal (1st Vice Chair)

• Karim Marshall (2nd Vice Chair)

• Naprisha Taylor (Corresponding Secretary)

• Lawrence Davin (Recording Secretary)

• Brandon Scott (Treasurer)

• Tiffany Brown (Sergeant-At-Arms)

Please join us for the next Ward 7 Democrats public meeting on Saturday, April 24, 2021, from 10am to 12pm. During the meeting we will swear in your new officers, present our “First 100-Day Plan” and provide an overview of our vision for the organization.

A ward divided, is NOT a ward at all – but together, We Are Ward 7! We look forward to working with you for the advancement of our party and our home.
