Giles Democrats Elect Officers

Recruiting more younger people is a goal of newly elected Giles County Democratic Party Chairman Mike Cesararini.

Cesarinii was elected in March for a two year term and replaces Tom Gattis, who did not seek re-election.

The action came at the Giles County Democrats Biennial Reorganization Convention at the Pulaski Recreation and Community Center.

“i don’t t know what it’s going to take,” Cesarini said, in making his plea to attracti more younger members.

“We have a college (University of Tennessee Southern). A lot of young people come here.”

Cesarini has served as a Giles County Commission but was not re-elected last August,
