Welcome to the PDMC website!
The Princeton Democratic Municipal Committee (PDMC) is the official Democratic Party organization representing the 20 voting districts within the Municipality of Princeton, New Jersey. Our mission is to support the ideals of the Democratic Party and its candidates, further good government, encourage grass roots participation in the Democratic Party, recruit Democratic candidates, have an open process for recommending ballot placement and slogan designation for Democratic candidates in Primary elections, fulfill its duties under Title 19 of the New Jersey Revised Code, and engage in activities that culminate in getting Democrats out to vote on Election Day to elect Democratic candidates.
Our goals overlap with the Princeton Community Democratic Organization (PCDO), yet the two organizations are distinct and vary greatly in scope. Please refer to this handy chart for more information on the different Democratic organizations in Princeton as well as their roles and responsibilities.

What's Expected
Committee members are responsible for staying in touch with constituents, listening to their concerns, and bringing these concerns back to the Mercer County Democratic Committee. Before the Primary Election in June and the General Election in November, members help organize volunteers to participate in efforts to register voters, call voters to remind them to vote, and distribute campaign literature to the doors of Democrats and Unaffiliated voters.

How to Serve
