Forming a New Club

If you’re interested in forming a club in your area, please contact us.

According to State by-laws, any organization which uses the name “Democrat” and raises money must obtain a charter from the County Central Committee of the county in which they operate. In order to be a chartered Democratic club an organization must have:

  • A minimum of 20 registered Democrats, a majority of whom reside in the same Assembly District and/or belong to the group the club intends to represent (youths from 16 to 18 may join if they sign a statement that it is their intent to register as a Democrat at 18).

  • A set of bylaws which establishes annual dues, nomination, election and term of officers and a regular meeting schedule.

  • All general program meetings must be open to the public.

  • Clubs may make endorsements in non-partisan elections but may not endorse, support, encourage or help non-Democratic candidates in partisan and non-partisan elections.
