Our party is organized at the state, county and local levels to insure the widest participation of Delaware Democrats in the political process. The Delaware Democratic Party is based on four political subdivisions:

 

• Sussex County

• Kent County

• The City of Wilmington

• The remainder of New Castle County                                                        

 

Within each subdivision, the basic unit of organization is the Representative District Committee (RD). RD20 is one of ten RDs in the Sussex County subdivision of the Delaware State Democratic Party.

 

The Sussex County Democratic Party is made up of duly registered Democrats who reside in Sussex County. The Sussex County Democratic Committee is made up of duly elected Sussex County Democratic Committee People who are represented by the Sussex County Democratic Executive Committee.
