Who are the Pennsylvania Young Democrats?

The Pennsylvania Young Democrats is the youth focused branch of the Pennsylvania Democratic Party. Thanks to the support of Governor Edward G. Rendell and our friends throughout the state, our organization is building a reliable and growing segment of the Democratic Party.

Currently, we have over 6000 members in Pennsylvania’s sixty-seven (67) counties. We are also the voice of an age group that votes for Democratic candidates by a 2:1 ratio and has outperformed those over the age of sixty-five (65) in recent years. Most remarkably, we are doing at a cost that is far less than our party spends on older voters.

We are proving that young people can turn elections, that we cannot be ignored and that we are an important voting block and the future of the Democratic Party.
