We appreciate your loyalty to the Democratic Party and would like all to know that there are many proud Democrats in Bellaire and Braeswood.
Bellaire Braeswood Democrats is an officially recognized club of the Harris County Democratic Party.
Bellaire Democrats began in September 2000. In 2016, Bellaire Democrats merged with the Braeswood Democrats to create an even more active and enthusiastic organization. Whether you want to work on campaigns, volunteer to work at Election Day precinct polling places, enjoy grassroots work, socials, meetings and/or education, we can all make a difference and have some fun when we join together.
Bellaire Braeswood Democrats is a social group interested in promoting Democratic causes and candidates, as well as providing voter information for elections. We meet regularly for the purpose of sharing ideas, becoming more educated about issues and candidates, or specifically to work on projects that assure Democrats are elected into public office. You are invited to join us and contribute your ideas and resources to this powerfully important process.
We value your contributions as we build the organization. We have committees in place to achieve certain goals, a Constitution and Bylaws and an Executive Committee to guide the process. We need your membership, time or talents to achieve results at the polls!
Bellaire/Braeswood Democrats focus on precincts 128, 214, 215, 268 and 919 in Bellaire, and precincts 017, 018, 175, 182, 224, 232, 350, 472, 819, 891, 931 and 933 in the Braeswood area, however, membership is open to residents of other areas and everyone is welcome!

Precinct Chairs
Below is the current list of Democratic Precinct Chairs for the Bellaire and Braeswood Precincts. Please contact them with any questions about local elections – for instance, to acquire the schedule and location of precinct polling places, or to find out what volunteer activities may be available.
The Precinct Chair serves as the contact person for the Democratic Party in their neighborhood. The Precinct Chair may contact you to promote Democratic candidates and events. Your Precinct Chair may organize phone banks, block walks (going door to door) to distribute campaign materials, and generally encourage their neighbors to vote in upcoming primary and general elections. If available, precinct chairs are asked to serve as election judges to conduct the Democratic Primary and General Elections.
Note that the tables below also list the US Congressional District (US CD), Texas Senate District (TX SD), and Texas House District (TX HD) that the precinct falls under.
