San Diego County Democratic Party Chair Rebecca Taylor poses with state Sens. Toni Atkins, left, and Steve Padilla, right, at the party’s annual Roosevelt Dinner on May 31, 2024. Rebecca Taylor, the diehard political activist who rode her passion for democracy to the pinnacle of the San Diego County Democratic Party and helped swing a long-conservative region into more progressive territory, died this week following a motorcycle accident in Utah. She was 40 years old.
“All you have to do is look at the nine city council members elected in San Diego these last few years,” Black said. “She was not chair when Nathan Fletcher was elected to the Board of Supervisors, but she certainly helped Nora Vargas get elected in 2020, and we’ve had the majority ever since.” Taylor — Becca to her friends and colleagues — was the oldest of six siblings, each born in a different state, according toShe was born in Idaho but grew up in small-town Texas before enrolling at Virginia Tech. She left school in 2004 and joined the Navy, serving five years as an aviation electrician and meeting deployments in both Germany and Afghanistan.
“Jennifer and I are deeply saddened by the tragic and sudden loss of Rebecca Taylor,” Gov. Gavin Newsom said. “Her dedication to public service and her remarkable impact on the San Diego community will never be forgotten.” After being quickly named acting chair of the county Democratic Party, Taylor later was unopposed when she ran for the seat early last year.
