Welcome to the official website of the SLU College Democrats!
The SLU Dems are actively involved on campus and in the Greater Saint Louis Area. We work on local and national campaigns and raise awareness about important issues affecting our country.
In addition to organizing numerous voter registration drives, we led a successful campaign to establish an on campus polling place in the Busch Student Center for the 2008 election. As a result, student participation increased from 55 voters in the February primary to over 1000 in the November general election (the margin of victory in Missouri was 3000 votes).
We have also hosted dozens of politicians and celebrity surrogates on campus, including Former DNC Chairman Howard Dean, Saint Louis Mayor Francis Slay, Saint Louis Alderman Shane Cohn, Rent Stars Taye Diggs and Idina Menzel, and Death Cab for Cutie Guitarist Chris Walla.
Join us and you will have great opportunities to meet elected officials and political power players, find internship opportunities, and most importantly, empower yourself through participation in the political process!
