(La Porte County, IN) - La Porte County Democrats are now looking for a new leader as Angela Henzman, the La Porte County Democratic Party chairman since December of 2022, has resigned.

Henzman was known for welcoming all people into the party during her relatively brief stay as party chairman, also being credited with ending exclusionary policies aimed at keeping individuals out of the party. In addition, Henzman helped to charter the LaPorte County Young Democrats to focus on outreach and engagement of younger generations.

Despite leaving her post, Henzman said she will remain the party’s nominee for La Porte County Clerk in the November general election.

So far, no reason has been given for her resignation.
