What is a Township and what do you do?

Each State in the United States is divided into a web of overlapping government entities. In St. Louis County we have cities (or municipalities), city wards, school districts, fire districts, the county, county districts, state congressional districts, state senatorial districts, the state itself, federal congressional districts, federal senatorial district (the State).

These political entities require a never ending flow of new candidates, people to organize for the political parties, act as delegates for the parties, election officials.

The townships organize the the political districts and support the political parties. Each township has one committeeman and one committeewoman from each party these are elected positions. Using groups like this Meetup Group they find precinct captains, election officials, party delegates and candidates for political office.

Get involved any way you can. It is fun!
