WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT?
There are over 165,000 registered Democrats in Guilford County. We need your help to reach them all.
ORGANIZATION: Organized precincts are the foundation upon which a healthy party structure is built and is critical to electing Democrats at the local, state and federal level. An organized precinct helps us:
- Recruit and Engage Volunteers
- Get out the Vote
- Ensure full representation at the County Executive Committee
RELATIONSHIPS: You won’t just be building the Party infrastructure—which is so critically important! You will also be building relationships. Organizing your precinct is a fantastic way to meet your like-minded neighbors and build true friendships that will last a lifetime.
REPRESENTATION: Representation matters! Only ORGANIZED precincts get to vote in matters of Local politics and Democratic Party business. Examples include:
- Defining the Party’s Platform
- Electing Local Party Officers
- Electing Delegates to District and State Conventions/Committees
- Electing Board of Elections Officers
- Replacing Local Democratic Officials who cannot complete their terms (ex. County Commissioners, School Board, etc.)
