The Democratic Party of Door County swept the contested elections in Door County! This may have been a first.
Barack Obama and Joe Biden led the way with 10,142 votes (58.02%) to McCain/Palin 7,112 votes (40.68%) out of a total of 17,481 votes cast.
Steve Kagen won 57.73% of the vote (9,936) over John Gard's 42.19% (7,261).
Dick Skare carried Door County with 8,755 votes (50.83%) to Garey Bies' 8,457 (49.10%).
Congratulations to the candidates on their terrific campaigns and the hundreds of Door County volunteers who spent thousands of hours canvassing, calling, knocking on doors, walking in parades, putting up signs, working in the office, etc. We couldn't have done it without you!
The Democratic Party of Door County now has over 270 members! Our goal is to double that number in the next two years. Let's work hard on getting the volunteers to join and contacting our friends, neighbors, and co-workers and signing them up as members.
