2026 Election Information
The 2026 Midterms will be a pivotal moment for both our country and democracy. Locally we have Congresswoman Madeleine Dean and Governor Josh Shapiro - both proud Abington residents - running for re-election, as well as our State Representative, Ben Sanchez.
Not very far away, we also hope to help challenge Brian Fitzpatrick’s seat in the race for the 1st Congressional District, with the ultimate goal of flipping the House of Representatives.
We can only achieve these goals by mobilizing locally and turning out the vote in May and especially this November!
If you’d like to get involved please come to our monthly meetings, held every third Tuesday of the month and bring a friend!
Become a Local Democrat Committee Person!
What is a Committee Person?
A Committee Person is a local Democrat, just like you, who has volunteered to be the contact for Democrats in his or her neighborhood (precinct).
A Committee Person gets to know their Democratic neighbors in their precinct, becomes a point of contact for questions about voting/upcoming elections, greets voters at the polling place, helps people register to vote, and recruits other volunteers to help them reach voters in their neighborhood. They also are a voting member of the ARDC to help put Democratic candidates on the ballot.
That sounds great! How do I become a Committee Person?
In Pennsylvania, elections for Democratic Committee Persons are held every four years (in the same year as the Governor’s election). The are only on the ballot in their precinct. If a Committee Person position should go unfilled, a volunteer may be appointed by their Area Chair (locally, that’s the Chair of the ARDC).
