The Chattooga County Democratic Party will hold its final meeting of 2026 on Tuesday, November 17, with a celebration of local volunteers and the election of party officers for the next two years.

The meeting will begin at 6 PM at the Chattooga County Civic Center, located at 44 Georgia Highway 48 in Summerville.

The gathering will recognize volunteers who participated in canvassing, rallies, town halls, phone banks and other activities throughout a busy election year.

“It’s been a huge year for us. We’ve had 4 elections, plus rallies, town halls, protests, postcard writing, canvassing and phone banks – all of this thanks to our local Democrats coming out and donating their time and energy,” said Chattooga County Democratic Party Chair Cynthia Hubler.

Hubler said the party hopes everyone who participated in or supported its activities will attend the gathering.

In addition to the volunteer celebration, the party will hold a brief business meeting to elect officers for the 2027–2028 term.

The five positions up for election are chair, first vice chair, second vice chair, secretary and treasurer. Officers serve two-year terms beginning in January 2027.

The elected officers, along with a post seat holder elected earlier this year, make up the party’s executive committee. The committee oversees party activities and projects, bylaws, budgets and expenditures.

All party members in good standing are eligible to vote and hold office. Anyone interested in serving as an officer is encouraged to attend the November 17 meeting.

Light refreshments will be served.
