Duties & Responsibilities of Precinct Committeepersons | Democratic Party 13

A Message from Democratic Party of Oregon Chair Meredith Wood Smith: Today, your voice and vote are needed more than ever before. Corporate special interests are trying to drown out the voice of average Americans with highly-paid lobbyists and unlimited campaign spending. While Republicans fall in line for the 1%, the Democratic Party is fighting for working men and women. Democrats know we must look out for those struggling in a tough economy, protect homeowners from unfair lending practices, invest in public education, and expand access to affordable health care. The Democratic Party of Oregon is comprised of volunteers just like you who make our party what it is. I invite you to join the Democratic Party of Oregon as a Precinct Committee Person and work with us to stand up for the 99%. What are Precinct Committee Persons and what do they do? Representative democracy only works if people like you are informed, involved and active. You understand that democracy is not a spectator sport, and as a Precinct Committee Person, you are the very foundation of what we do -- you have the power to enact change by: -- Registering voters and increasing voter turn-out in your neighborhood -- Electing Democratic county, state and national party leaders -- Keeping the Democratic Party and elected leaders informed about the issues important to you and your community. -- Making sure the Democratic Party represents you -- Determining the direction of the Democratic Party How do I become a Precinct Committee Person? First you must be a registered Democrat. If you filed with your county elections office as a Precinct Committee Person candidate for the May primary, your name will appear on the ballot. If not, you may write in your name on the ballot. To be eligible to win by write-in, you must receive a minimum of three votes. This can often be accomplished in your own household, but you are best served by reaching out to as many neighbors as possible. You can also be appointed by your local county committee by attending a meeting and expressing interest. Find out more at www.dpo.org. Be empowered! The job of Precinct Committee Persons can be large or small, depending on your own initiative. If you accept, you will be called upon to perform some basic activities like: -- Helping distribute materials to your neighbors -- Organizing and participating in phone banks -- Recruiting new volunteers -- Attending local trainings and meetings The Democratic Party of Oregon encourages new leadership and creates opportunities for all Democrats to fully participate in activities of the party. Many of our elected leaders in Oregon started off as Precinct Committee Persons in their communities.

We invite you to become a Republican Party Precinct Committee Person (PCP) What is a PCP? Precinct committeemen and committeewomen are the heart of the Republican Party in Oregon. As the grassroots representatives of the Republican Party in Oregon, they advocate for Republican political principles in their neighborhoods and community. They attend regular meetings of their county Republican Central Committee in order to help set the party agenda in the county and to strategize how to spread the Republican message at the local level. What does a PCP do? As a PCP, you have a voice in selecting Republican Party leadership on the county, state, and national levels. You may even seek a leadership position yourself. County leaders, in turn, help select the state party leaders who participate on the Repub- lican National Committee and elect the national party leaders. PCPs also select Oregon delegates and alternates to attend the Republican National Convention, who cast the ballots for the Republican nominee for President and Vice President of the United States. PCPs are often called on by Republican candidates to help with grassroots campaigning. You may be asked to ”walk” your precinct to introduce a candidate to friends and neighbors. You may also be asked to make phone calls and distribute campaign materials in your precinct. You will become the face of the Republican Party in your community! What is the Republican Philosophy? • Republicans believe that the strength of our nation lies with the individual and that each person’s dignity, freedom, ability and responsibility must be honored. • Republicans believe in equal rights, equal justice and equal opportunity for all, regardless of race, creed, sex, age or disability. • Republicans believe that the free enterprise system has made America the land of opportunity, economic growth and prosperity. • Republicans believe government must be fiscally responsible and allow individuals to keep more of the money they earn. • Republicans believe the proper role of government is to provide for the people only those critical functions that cannot be performed by individuals or private organizations, and that the best government is that which governs least. • Republicans believe the most effective, responsible and responsive government is government closest to the people. • Republicans believe that Americans value and should preserve our national strength and pride while working to extend peace, freedom and human rights throughout the world. This election, Oregon Republicans will work to elect Republicans in the Oregon House and Senate, United States Congress, and the White House. PCPs will play key roles in bringing about these victories. If you agree with the beliefs expressed above, we invite you to become a PCP to make the Republican Party and our nation stronger. If you would like more information about the Oregon Republican Party, please call our state party headquarters at (503) 595-8881.
