Young Democrats of Oklahoma Expand with Cleveland County Chapter
The new chapter mobilizes young progressives across Cleveland County to shape Oklahoma’s future.
Norman, OK - October 23, 2025 - The Young Democrats of Oklahoma (YDO) proudly announces the chartering for the Cleveland County Young Democrats, a new chapter dedicated to empowering young leaders and building progressive momentum in one of the state’s faster-growing and most diverse communities.
With thousands of young voters in the area, Cleveland County represents a critical hub for youth engagement. The new chapter will help organize young Oklahomans ages 18 to 35 across Norman, Moore, South OKC, Noble, Lexington, Slaughterville, and surrounding communities to connect, collaborate, and take action on issues that matter to them.
“Cleveland County has always been a critical hub of Democratic politics for our state. The county is home to our state’s largest university and thousands of young people of all walks of life. We are confident that Cleveland County Young Democrats can help build the infrastructure for our party to thrive” - Ryan Moses, President
This chapter was made possible by a collection of young people who came together not only to imagine a better Oklahoma, but to build it. While many hands shaped this effort, Jess Yeverino (Secretary), Caroline Lancaster (Vice-President), and Ryan Moses (President) have taken on executive roles and dedicated countless hours to keeping the momentum going. Their leadership reflects a broader community of young dems who made this charter a reality.
“We’re thrilled to officially welcome the Cleveland County Young Democrats as one of our newest chapters,” said Justin Cypert-Worley, President of the Young Democrats of Oklahoma. “In just a short amount of time, this team has built an incredible foundation from hosting multiple events, partnering with community leaders in Norman and Moore, and getting young people engaged in local politics. Ryan and their executive board are movers and shakers who are already making a real impact. We can’t wait to see all they accomplish.”
The Cleveland County Young Democrats are now preparing for their next meeting, at the Cleveland County Dems HQ on Nov 6th at 6:30PM, and are inviting local youth to get involved.
