County Chair
Andy Millard
CONTACT ANDY
Andy has been the county chair since March of 2019. He was District 10's Democratic candidate for U.S. House of Representatives in 2016, earning widespread praise for the campaign's innovative organization, communication, and upbeat tone. He then planned and organized DemCanCon, a national training conference for hundreds of Democratic underdog candidates from across the country. The conference took place in January 2018 just outside Washington, DC; it included dozens of breakout sessions and over 50 expert speakers. Andy focuses on strategy and messaging. He has special skills in video production and graphic design, which he puts to work for the Polk Dems and Democratic candidates.

Precincts

The 7 Polk County Democratic Precincts each select three officers: Chair, Vice-Chair, and Secretary.  Precincts are not allowed to raise or spend money independently, so there is no treasurer function.
 
The officers serve for two-year terms, and are elected at annual precinct meetings in odd-numbered years, at a date specified by the state party but usually in February or March.
