"Blue" Job Opportunities in Alaska

From Alaskademocrat.org:

ANCHORAGE -- As part of Democratic National Committee’s (DNC’s) fifty-state strategy to revitalize the Democratic Party, Chairman Howard Dean has selected Alaska as one of the first states to receive funding that will triple the paid state party staff.

“This is an unprecedented opportunity and a vote of confidence for the Alaska Democratic Party,” said Jake Metcalfe, ADP State Chair. “Governor Dean has put his money where his mouth is – this is the first time in the history of the state party that the DNC has contributed to our operating budget.”

Before everyone gets TOO excited picturing scores of new jobs, the Democrats presently employ one (1) full-time employee. Doing the math, that means the staff will increase to three.

I guess "hiring two more employees" doesn't sound quite as good as having "triple the staff." No matter, it's definitely a step in the right direction!
