The leader of the DeKalb County Democratic Party has been named Secretary of the Tennessee Democratic County Chairs Association, and re-elected Chairman of the 6th District County Chairs.
Jordan Wilkins was elected to the positions on Saturday, April 29 in Murfreesboro at the annual Statewide Conference.
The 6th district includes the following counties: Pickett, Fentress, Cumberland, White, DeKalb, Cannon, Coffee, Wilson, Smith, Jackson, Overton, Clay, Putnam, Trousdale, Macon, Sumner and Robertson counties.
“My goal is to make sure each county party is strong and active in their communities, spreading our message on what Democrats are doing to help make life better for all Americans. I plan to work closely with each county Chair to ensure that we have good candidates running up and down the ballot in 2018,” said Wilkins.
Meanwhile Wilkins recently met Virginia Senator Tim Kaine at a fundraising event in Nashville. Sen. Kaine was the 2016 Democratic Vice Presidential nominee.
