The Executive Board (EBoard) of the El Cerrito Democratic Club (Club) recommends a budget that outspends our revenue by almost $2,500. Attached to this article are three tables, the Proposed 2019 budget, Budgets and Actuals over the past five years, and 2018 Budget versus Actual Expenditures. Last year was the first time in the past 5 years where the Club spent more than its revenue, despite proposed negative budgets since 2014. Comments on the individual budget lines are provided for Club member review. Last year's deficit is in large part due to Donations to Democratic Party of Contra Costa County events and fewer attendees at the Annual Dinner.
The proposed budget will be considered for adoption at the January 22, 2019 meeting. Only Active Members (dues paid) can participate in the vote.

At the November 27 Club Meeting, members decided to conduct business at the December 11 Holiday Party. Two items will be considered.
The club will take action to elect our representation to the Contra Costa Central Committee. We have two individuals interested in representing the club as Representative and Alternate. If others are interested in these two positions, they should let the club President Janet Abelson know (ecdc.pres@gmail.com) and attend the Holiday Party. Business will start around 7:30PM.
The club will take action on endorsement of California Democratic Assembly District Delegates (ADEM). These positions are elected in January 2019 to represent us at the State Democratic Party conventions and executive board meetings. Seven (7) women and seven (7) men are elected. People interested in getting the ECDC endorsement should arrive at the Holiday Party ready to canvass the room for endorsement votes.
See you at the Holiday Party, Tuesday December 11 from 7Pm to 9PM at 7 Pomona Ave.
