About WCDP
State Executive Committee
The State Executive Committee governs decisions made at the state level for NCDP. Each county elects Democrats to represent them on this Committee for a 2-year term (2021-2023). Wake County has 66 seats on the State Executive Committee to represent us. They are divided for equal gender representation between 33 female and 33 male seats, with the WCDP Chair automatically being counted for one seat in Wake’s SEC seat count.
As per the Plan of Organization, nonbinary individuals (those who do not identify as male or female) are eligible for either male or female seats on the SEC committee for Wake County.
