Who We Are

The Montgomery Township Democratic Organization supports candidates, community organizations and initiatives that promote civic engagement and good government. We work to protect the natural resources, traditions and future of Montgomery. We take pride in the service and accomplishments of Democratic leaders who confront the biggest issues facing Montgomery, while ensuring quality service every day to all residents.

The Democratic Party in Montgomery stands for good government through openness and responsiveness, strong fiscal stewardship, and a spirit of bipartisan cooperation.  We are focused on:

·        Preventing or limiting increases in property taxes

·        Protecting our open space, environment and natural resources

·        Improving parks and recreation 

·        Continuous improvement in public safety and other municipal services

·        Solving traffic problems and planning a bright future for the Township

Our organization is open to anyone who shares these goals and is willing to work cooperatively toward them.

The Montgomery Democratic Organization is the legal entity representing Democrats in Montgomery and Somerset County. Representatives to the County Organization are elected in the Democratic primary every two years (in even-numbered years).  Two representatives -- a male and a female -- are chosen from each of the Township's 16 voting districts. The 32 elected representatives to the Somerset County Democratic Organization then make up the local Montgomery Democratic Organization as well, along with local elected officials and other interested members of the community.

Official duties of the Democratic Organization include recruitment and support of candidates for municipal (Montgomery Township) elections, and votes at annual county meetings of the Somerset County Democratic Organization. The Democratic Organization works on the election campaigns of local Democratic candidates, and with the county, state, and national Democratic party organizations on county, state and national elections. The Montgomery Democratic Organization meets monthly and meetings are open to any interested Democrat in Montgomery. For more information on the Montgomery Democratic Organization, contact Keith Hovey, municipal chair, by e-mail at klhovey@yahoo.com.
