KANSAS BIG FIRST!
Welcome to the Future Site for the 1st Congressional District!

Hello to all Kansas Democrats! You have arrived at our new website before the site is even designed! We're glad you're here because we'd like to ask you for your advice. Will you please take just a minute and fill out the survey below? 

See, this will be an exciting new meeting place just for the Kansas Democratic Party's First Congressional District (see the list of our counties here)! This site will offer interactive opportunities for Democrats in all the 69 counties of the First District. Our hope is to increase communications and grassroots organizing opportunities for all Democrats in our geographically large district. We will have calendars, contact information, bulletin boards, blogs, photographs and much more. If you want to contact us directly with your ideas or questions, you can also contact Pam Pohly, the web designer/coordinator and member of the 1st District Advisory Committee at 785-625-6257.

The site is slated to open up by October 30th, 2009.

This site will go through a huge transformation and look completely different than it does now! Before we begin designing this site, though, we want to be sure and incorporate your ideas into its function. While we are in the development stages, we really want your input. We want your ideas.

Please fill out our survey below! Then, send your ideas to us by pressing the button at the bottom of the page. It's easy! It just takes a few seconds to complete but it's important to us. Thank you!
