Description/Abstract
This paper examines the internal party dynamics of the Warren Democratic Party in Upstate New York. The county comprises the city of Glens Falls and the rural townships around Lake George in the Adirondacks. The Warren County Democrats' over emphasis on national and state politics, and overrepresentation of certain populations like the teacher’s union, rather than their locality, leads it to neglect and alienate its rural communities and hence party support.
