		Don’t forget to file for PCO during filing week May 6-10!! Put it on your calendar and follow our page for reminders and links!!Andrew Ashiofu, former PCO, shares why they are important to our community:“Running for PCO is a vital part of being involved in our Party at a very local and personal level. You will be involved in endorsing candidates, shaping party platforms, and mobilizing voters in your precinct. The Democrat party is a party of diversity, this allows individuals from diverse backgrounds to have a seat at the table and contribute to the political process. Your perspective and experiences enrich the party and help ensure that it reflects the diversity of the community it serves.”
