Local Democratic Committees

County and Town

Both Columbia County and the 18 towns and 1 city within its borders have independently run Democratic Committees. Openings come and go on each so reach out to the committee of interest to you in order to join. Town Committees gather together monthly for a county wide meeting to discuss shared concerns and to keep abreast of neighboring Town happenings.

Local Boards

County, Town and Village

Opportunities on local boards are abundant. Different municipalities have regular board openings for all of Planning and Zoning, Historical Preservation, Education, Economic Development and more. Having Democrats on local boards helps ensure Democratically spirited policies govern and shape our local communities.
