The position of Vice Chair of the Democratic Party of Valencia County (DPVC) is vacant and must be filled by election with the voters being the members of the County Central Committee (CCC). The DPVC is also considering a rules change to alter the makeup of the Executive Committee to include all Officer positions and the President of the Valencia County Federation of Democratic Women. This is to serve as the call for a CCC meeting for these purposes.

The process will be as follows:
