Welcome to the Otsego County Democratic Party website. Located in the heart of Michigan’s northern lower peninsula, our community is a center of opportunity for tourists, industrialists, builders, teachers, small business owners, outdoor enthusiasts and more.

You may not always recognize us, but we are your neighbors, your friends and your co-workers. Every day, we serve our community and nation in different ways; from helping a child learn, to maintaining our roads, to defending our freedom overseas.

We share a spirit of dedication to our community, our state and our country. We stand for equal opportunity, fairness, freedom, family, community, and a responsibility to ourselves and each other. These are the values our elders passed down to us, the values we hope to share with our children, and the values we expect from our elected officials.

We’re proud to be a part of an organization that blazed the trail towards a better county, state and country for all. From the first kindergarten programs, bilingual education, children’s healthcare, Social Security, the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, workers’ rights, and women’s rights, as Democrats we’ve fought for the dignity of all and helped to make opportunity a reality.

Since our humble beginnings, we have tried to live up to the Native American meaning of the word Otsego –  a meeting place.  We’d love for you to join us at one of ours.
