This is such a busy time for our elected officials and candidates – August recess, district events/visits, family time, and always out there fighting the good fight. So we are doing our Summer Party in early September to kick off our Candidate Forums in October!
We have invites out to our friends and electeds and as always will be honored by their presence!
Please come mingle with our elected Democratic representatives, many 2026 candidates, members and friends. It’s the perfect opportunity to strategize, find ways to become active, hear what’s going on and just enjoy being together!
Come to the party!

It is with deep sorrow that I share that our beloved Club member, past president, organizer extraordinaire, political activist, environmentalist, great friend and mentor to many, MARC SALTZBERG, passed away on the afternoon of June 27.
Marc was ill with lung cancer and had surgery in December. He seemed to be recovering but had a turn for the worse and never recovered. He was very private, and few knew of his condition. There will be a memorial for him in the Marina in a couple of weeks.
Marc was a pillar of the West LA Democratic Club and a member and advisor to many other clubs and organizations, as well as former Vice President of the Venice Neighborhood Council. A tireless warrior for Democracy and an advocate for social justice, he was at the forefront of every major election, organizing phone-banks, voter registration, canvassing trips – traveling all over the country to knock on doors and get out the vote. I remember well those trips to Las Vegas on GOTV weekend! He was a super-activist in the environmental arena, and created the very successful WLADC Environment and Clean Energy Committee, bringing in issues, speakers, and resolutions for the Club to sign onto. In recent years, we all came to depend on his monthly Senate Competitive Seats Report, which essentially guided us in our financial donations.
He was generous, good-hearted and kind, and always there to lend a hand or offer a bit of advice. He taught by doing.
Our hearts and love go out to Nancy and their family.
May his memory be a blessing, and his spirit live on eternally.
