Gaston County Democratic Women Hold Annual Fund Raiser at Elizabeth Manor

The Gaston County Democratic Women held their 50th Anniversary fund raiser dinner at Elizabeth Manor on Friday, June 11, 2010. This annual event is promoted as the Katie Mae Oates Memorial Dinner. Katie Mae Oates was one of the veteran volunteers who didt't take "no" for an answer.

Secretary of State Elaine Marshall, the first female Secretary of State for North Carolina who is now seeking nomination for the Democratic U.S. Senate seat, was one of the honored guests in attendance. Marshall was joined other key Democratic Women such as Annette Carter, Beth Wood, Jennie Stultz and Gwynn Swinson to host a discussion panel on women in politics.
