Become a Precinct Committee Person

  Linn County is divided into precincts. Each precinct has at least two Precinct Committee People (PCPs). PCPs are the most grassroots-level building block of the Linn County Democratic Central Committee and the Democratic Party of Oregon. They are an important driving force behind registering voters, getting out the word on candidates and helping Democrats understand the party’s structure, process, and platform. They are the people who go out, walk neighborhoods, and connect with and activate Oregonians, talking to Democratic and non-affiliated voters. PCPs also vote at Linn County Democratic Central Committee meetings. For more information or to receive a PCP application form, contact Mark Leonard.

Become a Neighborhood Leader

  The Neighborhood Leader Program offers Democrats an opportunity to reach out to their closest Democratic neighbors – to connect, to hear their concerns and to help them cast informed votes in each election. Neighborhood Leaders receive a list and map of approximately 35 registered Democrats in their immediate neighborhood. Monthly get-togethers (via Zoom in COVID times) give Neighborhood Leaders an opportunity to share experiences, problem-solve, receive additional training, and generally have fun! For more information, click here or contact Nancy Greenman.

Join a standing committee

  Standing Committees are where much of our Linn County Democrats (LCDCC) work is planned, organized and implemented. There are seven permanent committees: Campaign, Communications, Events, Finance, Organization, Platform and Rules.  ​

Attend our meetings

  Come meet and get to know fellow Democrats. The Linn County Democratic Central Committee holds monthly meetings on the first Thursday of each month at Albany Public Library, 2450 14th Ave. S.E., and on Zoom. (Meeting registration links will be emailed and will appear on the linncodems.org homepage in advance of the meetings.) The meetings start at 6:30 p.m. A social time with light refreshments goes from 6 to 6:30 p.m.
