4-1. Powers and Authority.
A. General. The State Central Committee is the supreme governing body of the DPNM when regularly convened in the absence of a convention in session. It shall have general supervision and control of the political affairs of the party. Members of the State Central Committee shall serve as automatic delegates to all State Conventions, in addition to those state delegates duly elected at the County Conventions, unless prohibited by the rules of the Democratic Party of the United States.

The State Central Committee has the responsibility of fulfilling that policy by maintaining a systematic program for soliciting and collecting such contributions. It shall have the authority for appropriation of state party funds
C. Assessments. The State Central Committee shall have the authority to levy dues or assessments upon the various recognized party organizations (Rule 23-1) on an equitable basis proportional to the representation such organizations have on the State Central Committee.
