Philadelphia Ward Leaders & Committeepeople

Every four years (most recently in the 2026 Primary Election), Philadelphia elects Democratic and Republican Party committeepeople. Committeepeople serve as the frontline workers for local and state political organizations. They register voters, knock on doors, endorse candidates, and lead important get-out-the-vote efforts. They also play a vital role in educating voters and addressing voter disinterest.

We are available to provide in-person trainings for organizations so they can understand this important feature of Philadelphia’s city politics. If your organization would like to schedule a session, please contact our Program Director, Tanisha Bezue, at tbezue@seventy.org.
