Placer County Democratic Party

ABOUT US

WE ARE #PLACERDEMS

As of September 2024, we have over 90,000 Democrats registered in Placer County. Together, we can move Placer County forward.

Who We Are

We are the Placer County Democratic Party (PCDP), also known as the Placer County Democratic Central Committee (PCDCC). The terms are used interchangeably.

We are charged under state law with overseeing the Party’s local activities and campaigns and work in coordination with the California Democratic Party.

The PCDCC consists of members elected from each of the county’s Supervisorial Districts, as well as the Democratic nominees for Congress, State Senate, Assembly, and State Constitutional office.

PCDCC members are elected every two years on the party’s primary ballot. Any interim vacancies are filled by appointment through a vote of the current membership.

What We Do

The PCDCC coordinates the party’s activities throughout the county, making endorsements, organizing events and directing resources to support local, state, and national candidates and initiatives.

Any Democrat is welcome to join as a guest. Contact us to request Zoom info to join a meeting.
