Becoming a Precinct Chairman

Want to be a Precinct Chairman? Great! The Republican party relies on enthusiastic individuals like you to get out the vote for our candidates. Here’s what the position entails:

* Attending monthly executive committee meetings at the CCRP headquarters.  This is an important responsibility, as we must have a quorum to conduct business.

* Activating your precinct. This is accomplished by identifying the active voters in your neighborhood and block walking.  Nothing beats boots on the ground effort to get out the vote for good candidates.

* Staffing your precinct’s polling place on election day, and recruiting friends or neighbors to work the election.

There are two ways you may become a Precinct Chairman:

1. Be appointed to fill a vacancy
