Affiliates
Democracy Rules allows qualified applicants to declare themselves a candidate for an affiliate administrative position. Applications will be accepted until a predetermined number of applicants have registered, after which follows a 10-day period for these candidates to review each other's resumés. At the end of this period, DR hosts the Primary Election in which candidates may vote for any applicant other than themselves. The Primary Election will qualify the top half of the candidate field for the Affiliate Election which is conducted 10 days after the Primary vote. Only the remaining candidates are allowed to vote in the Affiliate Election and again, they may not vote for themselves. Candidates have 7 days in which to cast their vote in either election. The most popular non-elected candidates will serve as alternates and will receive priority consideration for future hiring by that organization.

With the exception of those in the United States , population estimates for metropolitan affiliates include core cities only. Depending upon where boundaries are drawn, the number of inhabitants served by these affiliates may be several times the population of the city itself.

Select a Democracy Rules national or metropolitan affiliate to declare yourself a candidate for an administrative position. Once an affiliate has been licensed, these links will connect to its website.
