Watauga Democrats Announce Annual Precinct Meetings

What’s a Precinct Meeting?

Precinct meetings are annual gatherings of active party members (in this case, Democrats) for the purpose of keeping the precinct organized under the rules of the state party (in this case, the N.C. Democratic Party), of electing delegates to the County Convention and of considering resolutions to be forwarded for debate and action to the County Convention.

The annual precinct meetings of the Watauga County Democratic Party will be held at various locations throughout the county during the first week of March. A complete listing follows, including contact information for precinct chairs. All active Democrats are encouraged to participate.
