What is the "Central Committee"?
The McDonough County Democratic Central Committee (MDCC) is recognized by the State of Illinois as a formal and legal entity of the Democratic Party in Illinois. McDonough County is divided into 31 Precincts. One person living in each precinct may be elected in the Democratic primary to serve a two year term on the McDonough County Democratic Central Committee. Those elected then choose a Democratic County Chairman, Vice-Chair, Secretary and Treasurer for that term. If no one runs for committeeman in a precinct the County Chair may appoint someone to that position. We currently have 9 empty precinct committee slots.
The Central Committee needs Precinct Committee Members now
If you are interested in being appointed to one of the 9 empty positions please contact County Chairman Lee Trotter leetrotter@mtcnow.net or 309-371-9295. You do not have to live in a precinct to be appointed to be its committeeman. Please consider joining a pool of possible appointees. We will need all hands on deck for the 2018 elections. The Central Committee currently meets at 6:30 pm on the fourth Monday of each month in the Macomb City Hall Community room. All local Democrats are invited to attend.

How to run for Precinct Committeeman in the March 20, 2018 Primary
To run for Precinct Committeeman (yes, man is the official name of the office, for now…) in your precinct:

3. Get your completed petition notarized (we can help if needed).
4. Turn your completed, notarized petition back in to the Voter Registration office any day from Nov. 27 through Dec.4, 2017.
