RUN FOR OFFICE
Are you interested in running for office?
Do you know someone who should be running for office?
​
Cape May County Democrats are always looking for potential candidates to run for local office. We are looking for local leaders. We are looking for people who know their town. We are looking for people who are committed to improving the quality of life for all residents. We are interested in people who have an interest in politics and want a chance to make a difference. Are you interested in standing up for your community and strengthen our community? Local issues impact our lives often, especially issues like property taxes, local public safety, or educating our children. Running for Town Council, Committee, or Mayor isn't easy but it's one of the most important things we can do for our community. Democratic leaders are focused on local issues and improving the quality of life for their residents.
