Agenda Item Text:

Approve the appointment of 3 Democratic Precinct Committeemen and 3 Libertarian Precinct Committeemen by recommendation of their Cochise County Party Chairman or State Party Chairman to serve through the October 1, 2022 term.

Background:

Per A.R.S. Statute 16-821(B), a County Political Party Chairman may appoint eligible precinct committeemen to serve a two-year term through October 1, after the next Primary election year.  The following 3 Democratic members have been recommended for appointment by their Cochise County Political Party Chairman.  The 3 Libertarian members have been recommended for appointment by their State Party Chairman as required.  Although the Libertarian Party is not recognized in Cochise County, State law allows the State Party Chairman to appoint eligible Precinct Committeemen. Eligibility has been verified by the Elections Department.  The following appointees are eligible voters in Cochise County and there are open seats for Precinct Committeemen in their appropriate precincts.
