MY TURN: What is a precinct committeeman?
Kootenai County is divided into 73 election precincts. It is within your precinct that you vote for a president, senator, congressman, state senator, state representative and for a precinct committeeman.
A precinct committeeman is a representative to and a member of the county party central committee. The Democratic Party elects precinct committeemen for each of the 73 precincts who together form the party’s county central committee which becomes the official party organ for the county. The central committee also elects representatives to the state central committee. The same is, of course, true for the Republican Central Committee.
