Precinct 526 Dunedin/Clearwater, Pinellas County Democratic Party

Precinct 526 Dunedin/Clearwater, Pinellas County Democratic Party Associate members are typically Democrats who enjoy having a voice in the Democratic Party’s governance structure but prefer to volunteer as their time allows.

The Pinellas County Democratic Executive Committee (PCDEC) is an entity of the Florida Democratic Party, and is the official governing body of the Democratic Party at the county level. The basic building blocks of membership to the PCDEC are:

Elected members who are elected to represent the Democrats in their voting precinct (Precinct Committeewoman and Precinct Committeeman) and to conduct P

recinct Captain roles of organizing and outreach in their home precinct;
Automatic members who are the Democrats elected to partisan office (such as County Commissioners and Florida Legislators) who are Pinellas County residents;
Appointed members who are selected by the PCDEC County Chair (but whose membership is subject to approval by the PCDEC) who bring special resources and talent and diversity to the PCDEC but do not serve as Precinct Committeewomen or Committeemen. Associate members who desire to affiliate with and volunteer with the local Democratic Party, but are freed from membership duties and do not have voting rights. Associate members who work at the most local level of Building Captain or Block Captain are indispensable to the Democratic grassroots network. Each county’s DEC elects a State Committeewoman and a State Committeeman to represent the county to the State Executive Committee, which in turn elects DNC members to represent Florida Democrats to the Democratic National Committee. In this way the Democratic Party’s county, state, and national governing Committees are representative of Democrats from localities all over the country. County DEC’s exist on a 4 year cyclical basis, with elections every Presidential Election year. In December of Presidential Election years, the organization starts from scratch, with the Elected and Automatic members (those who have, by virtue of having stood for election by the voters, earned the right to represent Democrats in their precincts or districts) convening at the “Organizational Meeting” to elect the leadership of the DEC (County Chair, Vice Chair, Treasurer, Secretary, State Committeeman and State Committeewoman). This model, established in Florida law and Florida Democratic Party (FDP) Charter and Bylaws, ensures that the major political parties are responsive to the will of the voters. The Pinellas County DEC has a Sergeant-At-Arms. There are various standing committees in the PCDEC that fulfill necessary administrative and constituent liaison functions. The roles and duties of the officers and committees and the Board of Directors of the PCDEC are delineated in the Bylaws of the PCDEC. The Florida Democratic Party Loyalty Oath can be found here.

January 26th, the Department of Education is scheduled to provide clarity regarding Schools of Hope if requested. This is one of many topics I’ve been working on as an individual school board member in collaboration with other organizations and within our district.

The chaos this has caused is unfortunate. Thank you to all who have advocated to support and improve public schools.
