The Huntington New York Town Democratic Committee is also:

• A Social Group: We're a friendly group of open-minded folks who enjoy getting together to further our common political principles;

• A Learning Environment: If you've never been involved in “politics”, this is the place to start. We'll give you hands-on training and experience in the actual process of government through hands-on, real-world activities;

• A Civic Organization: If you want to serve your community, there are few more vital ways to do it than by keeping the machinery of democracy working properly. Along with our competitors in other parties, we work to assure that the public has a range of candidates and viewpoints from which to choose.

• A Nursery for Candidates and Campaign Managers: If you've ever entertained the notion of running for public office – or helping someone you admire to do so – this is the place to learn the basics. We recruit candidates, help raise money, and provide volunteer workers for campaigns from local office to the President of the United States.

     The most important thing to remember is that we are a volunteer organization! That          means:

• Any enrolled Democrat registered to vote in the town of Huntington can join!

• You don't need to “know somebody” or have a degree in Political Science. Come as you are, and learn at your own pace.

• Choose how you serve!

• Every activity is voluntary, but the Committee does have formal responsibilities, and each member is in fact an elected representative of the Democrats in his or her election district. 

• If there's something we aren't doing that you think we ought to do, you can volunteer to start it. We're open to new ideas!

     The Commitment:

• The Huntington Town Democratic Party meets once a month, usually on the second Tuesday of the month. Meetings seldom last more than two hours. 

• There are no dues or special assessments.

• Although all Huntington Town Democratic Committee activities are voluntary, we encourage all members to spend a few hours of working the phones, driving voters to the polls, or otherwise helping out on or before Election Days.

• Finally, we hope you will be proud to tell your friends and neighbors that you are a member of the Huntington Town Democratic Committee – and to invite those who share your values to join us!
