Precinct Committee Persons
Precinct Committee Persons are the most grassroots-level building block of 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 progressive Oregonians, talking to independent, unaffiliated, and Democratic voters alike.
