    CA - Become a voting member of your County's Central Committee

    County Central Committee

    Each County GOP is governed by a Central Committee. If you want to become a voting member of your County GOP's Central Committee, you need to file as a candidate.

    The filing period is February 13 to March 9 with an election on June 5 (same ballot as the Presidential election).

    As for Los Angeles and Orange Counties, our Central Committees are broken into Assembly Districts. I can't speak for other counties, but most likely it is the same.

    Each Assembly District gets to elect a certain number of Central Committee members. For example, in Assembly District 36, 7 people were elected to the LA County GOP's Central Committee.

    See results for LA County's 2010 election here.

    Some Assembly Districts are very crowded while some don't have enough people running, which means you win by default as long as you file as a candidate (see 37th District - allowed to elect 7 members but only 4 people filed as candidates).


    Requirements to be a candidate

    There are some strict requirements related to being a registered member of the Republican party for a certain period of time. You can find the requirements at the bottom of this page here.


    How to file as a candidate

    You need to obtain nomination papers from your County Clerk and obtain 20 to 40 signatures of registered Republicans within your Assembly District.

    You can get LA County's nomination papers here.


    Assembly Districts have changed due to redistricting. You MUST file as a candidate in your NEW Assembly District.

    Becoming a member of a County Central Committee means you are a voting member of your County GOP. You get to vote for Chairman, Vice Chairman, etc of your County GOP and on other party matters.

    I don't think there are any official duties other than attending meetings, although you don't have to attend every single monthly meeting.

    Also, if you heard today, the Iowa GOP elected a Ron Paul supporter as their new Chairman. That could not have happened without our supporters in voting positions at their County GOPs. The County GOPs elect State Central Committee Members who then elect the State's Republican Chairman.

    The term is two years. What Assembly District are you running in?

    Also, where did you get the nomination papers?

    I thought they would be posted here for LA County, but in Part III, there is no option for Member of County Central Committee:

    EDIT: Nevermind. I found the nomination papers here for LA County:

    2. Find what Assembly District you live in. Assembly Districts have changed due to redistricting so you must find your NEW Assembly District.

    Do the signatures have to be from registered Republicans or can they be a Democrat?

    From my understanding, it must be signatures from registered Republicans.

    What Assembly District are you running in or planning to run in?

    Here are some very detailed instructions:

    38. That was my only question. I was pretty sure it was just Republicans, but since it wasn't specified here I wanted to make 100% sure. I'm well on my way to my 20-40 so it's looking good.

    Thanks for the reply.

    Just to make sure, you have to apply using the NEW Assembly Districts. Also, you should contact Steven at the email above and let him know you are running. This way, we can make sure everyone votes for the Ron Paul candidates.

    Just a reminder that the deadline for signatures is this Friday, but you should probably get them earlier and turn them in by Thursday to avoid a long wait at the registrar of voters.

    I got an email saying people in my area needed signatures, (they had people running) and filled out a form with my address and zip code (for assembly district) and said I'd sign. They were supposed to call and didn't. I emailed again saying I thought today was the deadline and do they still need me to sign, but at this point I'm assuming they have the signatures they need. I understand there was a meeting yesterday or the other day, with those running.
