I'd like to point out that the 'notability' guildelines make it very clear that this organization is notable, as the "Teenage Republicans" are a notable organization so considering its alternative group of 15,000 members would be a clear indication of Anti-Democrat bias.

Which notability guidelines are you referring to? Wikipedia:Notability_(organizations_and_companies)#Non-commercial_organizations, I assume?
As to your remark about Teenage Republicans: First, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a partisan battleground. Second, the fact that an article about A exists does not mean that consensus about A's notability has already been established, and it does not mean that B is notable.

According to that policy apparently this article lacks the "3rd party sources" criteria - as based on that policy talking about "national organizations", and since the YDAHSC is the official branch for a section for a population by the largest political party in the United States, I believe that establishes its notability. However that section outlines too that there must be 3rd party sources, and so until then the notability warning should remain.74.70.144.72 (talk) 10:45, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Also, I'd like to cite precedent: There are many articles for groups much less noteworthy than the YDAHSC, or are even state chapters of the YDAHSC, that don't have notability guidelines but have nothing more significant. [1] 74.70.144.72 (talk) 23:27, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia is always a work in progress, so the fact that an article about a comparable subject exists where nobody has taken issue yet does not prove anything. But thanks for pointing out this example, that text is clearly not in accordance with Wikipedia's principles either, I have marked it as requiring improvement too.

(Karpaten1 (talk) 12:29, 19 November 2008 (UTC)) As a user of Wikipedia I think the article, like its Republican counterpart, is useful. Because of the election, I was trying to find out if a high school organization existed, and now I know it does, and get some useful details. My suggestion is, keep the page and add some third-party material, instead of deleting it.[reply]

Young Democrats of America High School Caucus → High School Democrats of America – The High School Democrats of America is no longer affiliated with the Young Democrats of America, nor are any past activities undertaken by HSDA attributable to the Young Democrats of America. I would be happy to provide any documentation of this organizational change if needed. --Relisted.
