Upcoming Events

Monthly County Party Meeting


Whether you’re a longtime volunteer, newly registered voter, or just curious about what’s happening locally—this is your space. The Putnam County Democratic Party’s monthly meeting is a welcoming, inclusive gathering where Democrats of all backgrounds come together to learn, share ideas, and build a stronger community.


We’ll discuss upcoming events, local initiatives, opportunities to get involved, and ways to support each other and our values right here in Putnam County. There’s no need to be an expert in politics—just bring your curiosity and your commitment to making a difference.


Come be part of the conversation. Your voice matters.

Putnam County Democrats Strategic Planning


The future of the Putnam County Democrats begins with you. Our party represents those who show up—and it takes all of us. You don't have to agree with everything Democrats say or do; you simply need the desire to help shape a better future for our community. Independents, former Republicans, and anyone who cares about our county's future are warmly invited to join us.

Join fellow community members for a powerful Strategic Planning Session, facilitated by distinguished leadership expert Dr. Karen Whitney. Dr. Whitney brings extensive experience as the former President of Clarion University, Interim Chancellor of the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education, and Vice Chancellor for Student Life at IUPUI. Her engaging and inclusive approach will help us define a clear vision and actionable steps to move Putnam County forward.

First Friday Table


Come table with the Putnam County Democrats as we make our presence known, register voters, and help people get involved! We'd like 2 people minimum per time spot so please find a spot with availability, but you're ALWAYS welcome to join our table even when you're not scheduled to work!
