3. Conservative
There's discussion about making major revisions to the RPT Platform. Please describe the nature of any major changes you support.
If anyone is looking at the RPT platform and sees 33 pages, they are going to have trouble understanding what we stand for. It is also impossible to hold anyone accountable on something with so many narrow planks.
Should the county GOP chair be involved with fundraising? Why or why not?
No. The county GOP chair and executive members should not be involved in fundraising. This promotes endorsement of specific candidates who may not support our platform.
Do you like the Steering Committee style of leadership currently in place or that of just a county chairman?
I support the Steering Committee style of leadership. A reasonable number of voices is always better than a dictate by one.
Do you think the 'Republican' brand should be used by PACs in their names that may deceive voters? Why or why not?"
Absolutely no. This promotes endorsement of specific candidates who may not support our platform.
Do you beieve that the county chair/precinct chairs should actively participate in at least one committee?
Yes. A chair is elected to represent their district. If not participating, why are they there?
Are you willing to put in the time necessary to attend CEC meetings, additional committee meetings, training sessions, blockwalking, etc?
Yes.
How do you believe precinct chairs should be involved in elections? (election judge, clerk, none?)
Precinct chairs should participate in elections to ensure laws are being followed and equally applied to all participants. Precinct chairs should be a resource for citizenry regarding the political process, election integrity and election laws. Serving party members by whatever means achievable should be the expectation for a precinct chair.
What's your position on Texas House Speaker Dade Phelan?
I disagree with Speaker Phelan's appointing democrats to chair committees, not punishing democrats who fled the state of Texas during the legislative session in 2021, and not promoting the RPT platform.
