Kane Dems County Convention @ Baker Community Center
Jul 27 @ 7:30 pm – 8:30 pm
Kane Dems County Convention @ Baker Community Center

The Kane County convention is held every two years following the primary election on even-numbered years. This is when all new PCs are officially elected and can thus elect the Chair and Executive Board members of the Kane County Democrats.  This is a weighted vote based on the number of Democratic ballots pulled in your precinct for that primary election.  We will have the weighted number once the ballot is certified following the June 28 election.  The scheduled County Convention is a set date required by Illinois state law, which will take place this year on Wednesday July 27.

If you are a newly elected PC for the 2022-2024 term, please email us at info@kanedems.org to ensure that your email is included in our invite. Please note that this is a private event and that only elected and appointed PCs will be allowed in.
