Below is an explanation of the convention business. Please note that there have been a few changes in the SCDP Rules in recent years.


1. Any Democrat registered to vote in Aiken County may attend the county convention as a delegate.


2. You can sign up as a County Executive Committee Member (or Alternate), also known as Precinct Executive Committee, representing each precinct for a two-year term. The County Executive Committee Member (or Alt) will serve as a precinct leader and voting member of the ACDP Executive Committee. 


Note: If you wish to file to serve as your precinct Executive Committee Member, please fill out this form.

These state delegates and alternates may attend the SCDP state convention in Columbia on May 31, 2025. If you would like to serve as a state convention delegate, please be prepared to let us know at check-in. You will then receive the form to complete and return to us at the convention.
