The Nevada County Democratic Central Committee is the official branch of the Democratic Party in the county. Membership is governed by State Election law and members are sworn into office by the County Elections Office. Members must be registered Democrats and elected pursuant to the Election Code of the State or appointed by the Committee to fill vacancies.

The purpose of the committee is to support and elect Democratic candidates, to strengthen and increase membership in the Democratic Party in Nevada County, and, in general, to further the purposes of the Democratic Party. To accomplish these objectives the committee assists the campaigns of Democratic candidates, sponsors events and fund-raisers, and registers voters in the county. The committee also elects members to the State Democratic Party and to the State Democratic Party Executive Board and, on the local level, charters Democratic Clubs.

Central Committees exist nationwide. Here in California laws governing the Committees date back to 1909. By joining or contributing to The Nevada County Democratic Central Committee you are assuming an active role in determining the future of your country.
