Franklin County NC Democratic Party Officers
In these challenging times, the Franklin County Democratic Party chooses to be on the right side of history. We see what is happening all across our country, and we stand firm in our rejection of the radical ideals the GOP is pushing on the citizens of America. We stand with those who take to the streets to express their outrage over tyrannical rule.
We will continue to focus on improving the quality of life for all people in Franklin County, regardless of their race, age, gender, sexuality, citizenship status, religious beliefs, financial situation, and even political affiliation. Everyone is welcome in our party.
Our Executive Committee in Franklin County is a diverse team, representing a wide range of backgrounds and perspectives. We are dedicated Democrats from all walks of life and all corners of our county. Together, we work to keep our party members and the general public informed about local issues and the actions of their elected officials.
The Executive Committee meets at party headquarters on the first Thursday of each month at 7:00 pm. As with all other meetings listed below, this meeting is open to all registered Democrats. We encourage you to get involved by attending meetings, volunteering, speaking to your neighbors about issues, donating, or joining our email list.
Remember, your voice and your vote are powerful tools. They matter, and they can make a difference. We encourage you to use them to shape the future of our county and our country.
