Come see democracy in action! Visit and watch the Ada County Democrats conduct their monthly business meeting. Meet committee members in your district and learn about what is happening in the county.

We meet the third Wednesday of each month. December’s meeting will have a holiday potluck for all to enjoy after the business meeting.

The location varies and sometimes changes last minute. The best way to stay informed is to get involved!

Buy all your Holiday Goodies here! Free "Make-Your-Own-Latte" Bar and cookies. Hang around the firepit for a chat. All proceeds benefit the District 17 Democrats.

New Location! Join District 15 and District 16 for their monthly Cocktails and Conversation event. Meet like-minded people and enjoy (no-host) drinks and, of course, conversation.

This monthly event is always the 3rd Thursday of each month. November’s event will have special snacks to celebrate a birthday.

Join us at Voodoo Brewing for drinks, food and fun! Costumes are optional, but there are prizes for the best adult and child costumes. Your first beverage is on us if you've already voted. (If you voted by mail, bring your "I voted" sticker. If you haven't, you can vote at Meridian City Hall on your way to the party!) Bring the kids to trick-or-treat, meet new friends and hear from Kaylee for Congress.

Hey Idaho, let’s be visible! Grab a friend and head out to busy intersections and along roadways across Ada County. Proudly hold/wave American flags and homemade Harris/Walz signs to show that we’re all fired up and ready to vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz! Let’s make sure everyone sees our enthusiasm across the county. Spend as much time as you want, but a couple hours during the commute will have the most bang for your buck. Do it safely and make us proud!

If you want to coordinate, check with your District Chair for an event near you or check out the organizers at Idaho Dems. You are also more than welcome to wave signs on your own and then come to a later event and tell us about it.
