What is the Democratic Parish Executive Committee?
  • Democratic Parish Executive Committees (DPEC) have the general responsibility for Democratic Party affairs at the local level. They are under the jurisdiction of the DSCC and DNC. They are responsible for the endorsement of local candidates, as well as for building Democratic infrastructure within their communities.
  • DPECs elect statewide and local Democratic candidates, promote Democratic Party activities, hold a minimum of 4 meetings per year, communicate with the Democratic State Central Committee, fundraise, and affiliate with local organizations.
  • Qualify at your local Clerk of Court Office.
  • You must be 18 years old by the time of the election, a registered Democrat to run, and live in the district you will represent.
  • For parishes other than Orleans and Jefferson, there is one DPEC seat per Council or Police Jury district and an additional five “At Large” seats.
  • DPEC Qualifying Fee: $112.50
