Craig McDermott

I grew up in Massachusetts and moved to Arizona in 1993.

For the longest time, I was an "opinionated but uninvolved" Democrat, but when Harry Mitchell ran for Congress against JD Hayworth, I became one of the hundreds of volunteers who helped spread now-Congressman Mitchell's message and send Hayworth to the AM radio dial.

After spending 2008 working to elect Democrats in Tempe, Scottsdale, and the East Valley (with a fantastic side trip to Denver to see Barack Obama accept the nomination!), I was elected as Treasurer of the District 17 Democrats.

Now, in addition to that, serving as an elected PC, and writing a political blog (Random Musings, linked elsewhere on the MCDP site), I'll be acting as the treasurer for one of our candidates.
