About SacCountyGOP Meetings
The Sacramento County Republican Central Committee meets on the third Wednesday of the month. Meetings begin at 6:30pm. We do not hold meetings in July or December, unless there is a special need.
Registered Republicans in Sacramento County who signed up in advance may attend the meeting.
The June agenda will include some early endorsements of local candidates who are planning to run in November. Most endorsements will take place in August.
What Happened at the May Meeting?
The Committee filled two vacancies including Jackie Rigard in District 2 and Councilman Rich Lozano in District 5.
Candidates for local school board races addressed the Committee and all were unanimously endorsed.
Treasurer Christian Forte announced that a Committee Member had requested to review SacCountyGOP’s financial records. Records will be made available to view on Tuesday, May 21, at 10am at headquarters. All Committee Members are welcome to come and learn about our finances at that time.
The Committee approved an amendment to the Bylaws that clarifies it may not be assumed that Committee Members have personally endorsed all Republican Party-endorsed candidates. We recommend all candidates obtain approval for any actual or implied endorsement in advance of listing an individual’s name or image on their campaign social media or website.
Barbara Sloan reviewed the list of upcoming events, including the Sacramento County Fair and Bob Blymyer reported on the successful Republican Booth at the AutoRama.
Chair Mahan reminded the Committee that over $10,000 needs to be raised to cover costs of the Republican Booth at the California State Fair. SacCountyGOP has always hosted the State Fair booth at Cal Expo, in addition to their own County Fair. Republican County Committees and Organizations throughout the State are encouraged to support the Republican booth and to provide volunteers. Donors are listed on the State Fair webpage and are much appreciated.
