Usage Note
Parteimitglied is a person belonging to a political party, from Partei and Mitglied (member). It is neuter despite often referring to people, because Mitglied is grammatically neuter. Members pay dues (Mitgliedsbeitrag) and may vote at the Parteitag.
Examples
"Als Parteimitglied darf sie über den Vorsitz mitbestimmen."
