Update from Chairman Dickey, December 2019 – Republican Party of Brazos County

Dear Fellow Texas Republicans,

The holiday season has wrapped up and we are officially in 2020. As 2019 came to a close, the Republican Party of Texas was busy preparing for November 2020. December wrapped up candidate filing for the Republican primary. Last month we confirmed that there is a Republican candidate challenging every Democrat in all 36 Congressional districts and all targeted State Representative races. The number of women running for office in Texas also doubled compared to the 2018 Primary.

A crucial part of achieving these outstanding results was the Candidate Recruiting Task Force which was led by Hamilton County GOP Chair Cat Parks. The program was a huge success for recruiting candidates and accomplishing one of the Republican Party of Texas’ top campaign priorities – challenging every Democrat incumbent in Congress and targeted State House races.

In December, I traveled to Washington, D.C. for my quarterly visit with the Texas Republican Congressional Delegation. While there, I attended a press conference on the importance of passing the United States, Mexico and Canada Trade Agreement.

At the 4th Quarter SREC Meeting, we held the Volunteer of the Year dinner with Senator John Cornyn to celebrate and honor the outstanding volunteers that are the foundation of our work. I am extremely thankful for our volunteers across the state who are putting in the work to keep Texas red. If you want to help us keep Texas red, please text VEP to 72000 now and we’ll get you plugged in.
