County and Precinct Chairs
The Libertarian Party is a bottom - up, grass roots organization. Here's a review of our party organization:
Precinct Chair
The smallest political unit in Texas is the Voting Precinct. Our goal is to have one Libertarian Precinct Chair in each Voting Precinct. Precinct Chairs are responsible for distributing door hangers, meeting their neighbors, and getting out the Libertarian vote on Election Day. Contact your County Chair or Executive Director Robert Butler if you wish to be a Precinct Chair.
District Representative
Each county is divided into 4 Districts. We would like each District to have at least one representative in your county party. It is the responsibility of District Representatives to recruit and organize Precinct Chairs in their districts and coordinate efforts to promote the Libertarian Party within their district. This includes: events, door-to-door campaigns, recruiting candidates, and helping the county party.
County Party
County parties are the local affiliates of the Libertarian Party of Texas. Most electoral action occurs at the county or city level, so it is vitally important for the Libertarian Party to have active county organizations and volunteers. We encourage you to speak with your local leaders and attend local meetings. This is usually the best way to get involved and find out where your help can make the most difference. We need active County Chairs and Officers to promote the Libertarian Party, get candidates on the ballot, and address local issues.
State Party
The Libertarian Party of Texas is an affiliate of the Libertarian National Committee. The state party is responsible for addressing statewide issues, recruiting candidates, maintaining ballot access, and assisting county parties. The state party is governed by the State Libertarian Executive Committee (SLEC). SLEC is composed of four officers and two representative from each Texas Senate District.
