Doten elected to DNC post

Becca Doten, the communications director for Councilman Richard Alarcon, won her election as a member of the Democratic National Committee post.
Doten was one of four women seeking the post and received 180 of 281 votes cast at the California Democratic Party meeting this past weekend.'
"I am honored to have the opportunity to join the California delegation to the DNC," said Doten. "Inclusion of young Democrats as DNC members is essential to the future of our Party and I thank the Executive Board members of the CDP for the strong statement they made to ensure that our diverse delegation includes young voices."
Doten first got involved in politics in 2003, inspired and engaged by Gov. Howard Dean's campaign for President. Since then, she has given hundreds of hours of volunteer time to local, state and national campaigns. In 2006, she was named a "Volunteer of the Year" by the Democratic Party of the San Fernando Valley (DP/SFV).
