My Plan
-
Organization
Organize quickly, run efficient meetings, have effective committees, and encourage volunteer participation.
-
Finances
Run our party finances in an efficient and transparent way with a focus on state-wide fundraising.
-
Infrastructure
Encourage effective communication, update the website, share data, and provide training opportunities.
Organization
Meetings
Hold fair and efficient meetings.
Establish meeting dates in advance, so people can plan.
Bring in timers and vote counters that are not members, so members can focus on the business at hand.
Committees
Appoint party positions listed in the bylaws within 3 weeks of the election.
Establish deadlines for committee’s work, to help keep the organization moving forward.
Expeditiously appoint Republican Patriots to fill open committee positions.
Volunteer Positions
Establish a Statewide Coordinator that is responsible for keeping in touch and updating organizations across the state.
Establish a Statewide Parade Coordinator, so candidates and other members of our party will be able to effectively coordinate with other counties and organizations that are aligned with our party platform.
Establish a Down-Ballot Director who helps counties engage in and field candidates for school board, county commission, and mayoral races.
Establish other volunteer positions, as necessary, to help our state organization run smoothly.
Finances
Budget and Expenditures
Run the party finances in an effective and transparent way.
Include an expenditure report at each meeting and include the report in the meeting minutes.
Post the treasurer’s report regularly in a secure area of the website.
Have an option for counties to post their treasurer’s reports in a secure area of the website.
Prepare an annual budget. Circulate it to the members in a timely fashion. Circulate an expenditure to budget comparison.
Fundraising
Appoint a Fundraising Director soon after the election (this person will be responsible for helping the state party raise money for 2025).
Bring the yearly Pheasant Hunt back to the state party.
Make it easy to give money to the state party, through awareness of options to give.
Raise money throughout the state (I will be actively involved in the fundraising effort).
Infrastructure
Website
Overhaul the website and keep it updated.
Include an up-to-date calendar (include local events, when possible)
Create a protected area on the website that includes updated bylaws, meeting agendas, training, proxy forms, etc.
Upload documents from the convention and other party forums to the website in a timely fashion.
Data and Training
Work with the state data director to help disperse party data to members in a secure way. Regional Directors will be called on to help with this process.
Develop training that is accessible through digital platforms including Roberts Rules of Order so that members can effectively conduct meetings on every level of our party.
Hold RNC training on the use of our digital platforms, like Kickstart.
Communication and Resources
Use in-person and digital tools for communications (Signal, Slack and Zoom) and training (will vary depending on the needs).
Use printed and digital materials for meetings.
Collect helpful resources for local and statewide Republican candidates, like sign locations, and make them easily accessible to all Republican candidates.
Continue using email as primary means of communication.
