Representative Dotie Joseph, Democratic candidate for State House District 108, recently announced the launching of her 2020 re-election campaign. Representative Joseph re-presents one of the most culturally and economically diverse districts in the state. House District 108 also happens to be one of bluest districts – Democrats accounting for 68% of registered voters and every top-of-the-ticket Democratic candidate since 2010 has earned over 85% of the general election vote. Representative Joseph was first elected in 2018, after defeating two opponents in the Democratic primary election and handily winning the general election with 91.7% of the vote.Â
