Welcome!
Welcome! The Democrats of South Dade Club is a year-round political organization that engages the community, elects Democrats and advocates for better conditions for Miamians. It represents an open forum for Democrats. Our club has been one of the most active political clubs in South Florida since 2001. We meet every second Thursday of the month at 7pm at the Elks Lodge 1676, 6304 SW 78th St, South Miami, FL 33143, and you can become a member by clicking on this link.
DSDC is dedicated to furthering the ideals of the Democratic Party. To that end, we act as an arm of the local, state and national party. We were established in 2001 and are chartered by the Florida Democratic Party. We open a campaign office every cycle thanks to our members’ generosity.
Our Mission
Our top aim has been to elect Democrats at every level of government. You can help us in that goal by participating in our monthly meetings, joining us for our voter registration and candidate events or volunteering on our action committees
You’re invited to join our many volunteers in these enriching experiences.
At our gatherings, we invite experts to discuss current events in Miami, political candidates and officeholders, and provide insights into the local political scene. It's an excellent opportunity to connect with individuals who share similar interests and perspectives.
We mix this informational side with a can-do attitude and pride ourselves on punching above our weight. Make your voice heard and impact our future! We look forward to having you at our events and activities, as we seek to push back against Donald Trump and his Republican allies that seek to turn our country away from the inclusive and kind place we know it can be.
“We would like to recognize the Democrats of South Dade Club as Florida’s Outstanding Large County Club!”
