ACTIVITIES
Fayette County Republican Party (FCRP) The FCRP provides Fayette County Republicans with many opportunities for to become involved and participate in the political process.
General Membership Meetings The General Membership of the FCRP meet formally at least four times a year. Meetings are most often held on a Saturday morning in La Grange. In addition to routine organizational business, General Membership meetings usually include a program or speaker of interest to Fayette County Republicans and conservatives. All Republicans, whether a member of the FCRP or not, are invited and encouraged to attend our General Membership meetings.
Meetings With Elected Officials & Candidates for Office Elected officials and hopeful candidates for office routinely visit with the FCRP at our meetings, as well as at campaign functions and special events in Fayette County. These appearances provide us with an opportunity to learn about current issues and share our opinions directly with our political leaders.
Precinct Conventions Every two years the Republican Party in Fayette County holds Precinct Conventions at each polling place following the primary election in even numbered years. These conventions provide Republicans with an opportunity to propose resolutions to be considered at the Fayette County Convention as a potential plank in the state party platform. Precinct Conventions also elect delegates and alternates to attend and participate in the Fayette County Convention. Anyone who voted in the Republican Primary can (and should) participate in their Precinct Convention and be elected as a delegate to the County Convention. While the number of delegates each precinct can elect varies, every Voter Precinct can send delegates to the County Convention. County Convention Every two years, in even numbered years, the Republican Party holds a County Convention following the primary election. These conventions provide Republicans with an opportunity to propose resolutions to be sent to the State Convention for consideration as a plank in the state party platform. At the County Convention delegates and alternates are elected to attend and participate in the State Convention.
State Convention Every two years the Republican Party of Texas holds a State Convention following the primary election in even numbered years. This biennial convention is where Texas Republicans define the state party platform and rules that will apply for the next two years. While the number of delegates and alternates that Fayette County can elect and send to the State Convention varies, Fayette County is always very well represented. Recent State Conventions have been held in Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio. At the State Convention delegates and alternates are elected to attend and participate in the National Convention.
Special Events The FCRP participates in a number of community events. Appearances in parades, booths at the county fair, sponsoring patriotic activities, and hosting other events provide an opportunity for Fayette County Republicans to share their values and promote Republican candidates.
