Electing & Supporting Democrats in Henrico County

The Henrico County Democratic Committee has the responsibility of regulating and directing the nominations of all candidates of the Democratic Party in Henrico County and for the Party’s interests in all general and special elections in the County. We do everything possible to aid in the victory of all the Party’s nominees in all elections, and encourage the registration and the participation of all voters in elections without discrimination.

The Committee is comprised of representatives from each precinct in the county (learn more about our precincts by clicking on the links in the sidebar). Our membership lasts 2 years, with vacancies filled throughout the term by the membership.

Our membership consists of people from all aspects of life. We represent all voters regardless of religion, race or ethnicity.

There are many opportunities for you to get involved. Many of our past members have been elected to public office or appointed to official positions. And our members always share a special camaraderie, all the while knowing that they are working to improve the election process.
