co-chairs

Jay Buckey and Jackie Weatherspoon have been named the 2008 Democratic State Party Convention co-chairs.

The co-chairs are involved in planning the convention.

"Jay and Jackie were chosen as co-chairs because they represent the grassroots of the New Hampshire Democratic Party," said Democratic Party Chairman Raymond Buckley in a statement. "Our conventions are focused on empowering local Democrats to effect change in their community and Jay and Jackie will ensure that we succeed in that goal. I am grateful to their contribution to our party and look forward to working with them in the coming weeks."
