The Hillsborough Township Democratic Organization is dedicated to strengthening the Democratic Party and advancing its values at the local, county, state, and national levels. Guided by Democratic principles, we work to support and elect qualified candidates who reflect the needs and values of our community. Our mission is to promote the well-being, progress, and civic engagement of Hillsborough Township, Somerset County, the State of New Jersey, and the nation as a whole.
Committee representatives have the opportunity to support the party’s purposes and support Democratic candidates for election after their selection in a primary election. Representatives can also seek to grow the local party membership, volunteer on campaigns, serve as challengers in elections, assist with events, and support the municipal chair as requested.
The HDO consists of 70 representatives, two from each voting district. Members should attend at least 50 percent of meetings, participate in conducting HDO business, and actively support candidates in local, county, state, and federal elections. Participation in Township Committee campaigns is particularly encouraged.
