Precinct Committeemen
The grass roots and foundation of the political
parties are their precinct committeemen. They serve as the foot soldiers to the
most fundamental political unit of government, the precinct. The precinct
committeeman helps shape party policy and participates in the selection process
of candidates. A precinct committeeman is elected to a two-year term in the
even-year primary elections.
Expectations of a precinct
committeeman:
- Represent the party’s voters at
the county central committee convention to elect the county central chairman
and its officers. The precinct committeeman casts a total number of party
votes, (weighted vote), as cast in the precinct at the recent primary
election
- Attend and become involved in the
party’s Township meetings
- Become a voter registrar and
register all qualified constituents
- Appoint and fill vacancies of
election judges for the precinct polling place
- Provide candidate and election
information to the voters
- Circulate petitions for candidates
prior to the primary election
- Become familiar with the elected
officials and legislatures so the concerns of the voters can be passed on to
them
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN BECOMING A
PRECINCT COMMITTEEMAN YOU MAY CONTACT YOUR PARTY’S CHAIRMAN (see above.)
