Polk County Democratic Hispanic Caucus
Elects Officers, Sets Agenda
Albyn Roman
The Polk County Democratic Hispanic Caucus elected its first set of officers at its organizational meeting June 16.
Albyn L. Roman of Lakeland was elected president for the 2014-2016 term. Rocco Anastasia of Lakeland was elected vice president and Betsy Oley, also of Lakeland, was elected secretary/treasurer.
The group heard presentations from two candidates, Michael “Mac” McKenna who is running for Congress from District 10 and Celeste Williams, who is running for the Florida House of Representatives from District 41.
The Caucus voted to hold its monthly meetings in the west end of the county on the third Thursday of each month. The next meeting will be held February 20 at 6:30 p.m. on the Lakeland campus of Polk State College, Room 1243.
The Caucus will also hold monthly meetings on the east side of the county. A location, time and place for those meetings is still to be determined.
“We want to make our meeting locations as convenient as possible for all our members,” said newly elected president Roman. “We will establish sites for meetings on both sides of our far-flung county.”
