Each year Washington State Democrats gathers to honor the work of and dedication of Democrats from around the state at the Warren G. Magnuson Awards Ceremony, also known as the Maggies. The Maggies will be held sometime in September or October in Seattle. We will announce the date once a speaker is confirmed.

This year we are planning to do something new and exciting at the Maggies. We would like to put together a video about all of the award winners. That means we need to hear from you. Please use Maggies - Nomination Form (67 kB) to send in your nominations by Sept. 10th.
