John Mikos
El Paso County Democratic Party Chair
Elected at Reorganization in Odd Years for a 2 year term
Current term is February, 2021 - February, 2023
My interest in politics was shaped by a book I read about as a young person. It was Dr. Martin Luther King’s book, Where Do We Go from Here, Chaos or Community. Since then, I have had an interest in ways that I may help promote equality, fairness, and economic justice.
When it comes to making the world a better place we think globally, and then we act locally. El Paso County is growing and changing. Many working families face challenges in securing affordable housing, accessing healthcare, and pursuing quality public education. I believe the best thing we can do to advance progressive policies and good government is to elect Democrats to public office.
My professional background is in management and consulting. I served 20 years on active duty as an Army officer and retired as a Lieutenant Colonel. In the military I had global assignments and served a tour in Iraq. Since separating from the service, I have worked in consulting and business enterprise technology.
My family and I really enjoy living in Colorado. Serving as the County Chair of the El Paso County Democratic Party is my way of giving back. I work to help elect Democrats who will make Colorado a better place to live and work for ALL the people of our community.

Amy Paschal
El Paso County Democratic Party First Vice Chair
Elected at Reorganization in Odd Years for a 2 year term
Current term is February, 2021 - February, 2023
I am the mom of two adult children and an avid volunteer. Holding a bachelors and masters in computer science, I worked in the software product industry for 15 years primarily as a software engineer, and project manager. I have also done some professional services and customer support.
Originally from MN, by way of WI, OR and CA, I came to CO 16 years ago with my husband and two small children to enjoy the quality of life, beautiful scenery, skiing and hiking.
I am passionate about progressive politics, especially climate change, campaign finance reform and elections integrity. I have been involved in Democratic politics in El Paso County since 2016 when I was inspired by Bernie Sanders to give this politics thing another try. Before that, I spent most of my volunteer hours at my kids' school.

El Paso County Democratic Party Second Vice Chair
Elected at Reorganization in Odd Years for a 2 year term

Lynne Brown
El Paso County Democratic Party Treasurer
Elected at Reorganization in Odd Years for a 2 year term
Current term is February, 2021 - February, 2023
Lynne came to Colorado Springs from the East coast thirty years ago to raise her daughter and be near her parents in Denver. This was her second time being a transplant. The first was when her family left
Brooklyn, NY, for Denver in the mid-fifties. After high school, Lynne
graduated from NYU, landed a job as a marine insurance underwriter in New York, then later started a long career as a software developer. As much as she loved software development, when Trump was elected Lynne decided it was time to do more. She volunteered for candidates and later joined the volunteers working away at the party's local office. Lynne looks forward to serving as Treasurer and contributing to the further growth of the Democratic party in El Paso County.
