As stipulated in their bylaws, every two years the ward committees and the City Committee of the Newton Democratic Party hold reorganization meetings to select officers. These officers provide leadership and direction to the local Democratic Party in Newton during their two-year terms. On April 15th, the City Committee will hold its reorganization meeting to elect its officers.

For more information about the process of electing officers, click here.

We would like to announce a slate of candidates who are interested in helping to lead the City Committee. In addition to the elected officers, the chairs of each committee will be confirmed by appointment of the elected officers for another two year term.

We think that this is a strong and balanced team dedicated to building a stronger Democratic Party and electing Democratic candidates to office.
