The Durham County Republican Party elects leadership every two years at our County Convention. This year’s convention, to be held Saturday March 7th, will bring my second term to a close. As such, one of the many important pieces of business we will be addressing at this year’s convention is the election of a new Chairman.
The two announced candidates for Chairman are Immanuel Jarvis & Teiji Kimball. While both gentlemen have been active on our Black Republican Committee these last couple of years, you may not know both of them. So I’d like to encourage you to take a look at these messages from them. You will find Immanuel’s article here. You will find Teiji’s article here.
Please spend time reading each of the two candidates’ articles. Who leads the Durham County Republican Party for the next two years is up to you.
After reading each of the candidates’ position paper, please make sure you register for the upcoming FREE Lincoln Douglass Commemoration, which will be Friday, January 30th at 6:00 pm. Please register for this event now. We are expecting a large crowd. The evening’s keynote speaker will be E. W. Jackson, the 2013 Republican candidate for Virginia’s Lt. Governor. Here’s a YouTube video of his acceptance speech from the Virginia Republican Party’s Convention, if you watch it, I think you’ll anticipate a rousing speech at our event later this month.
That said, the only way you’ll be able to vote for your favorite Candidate for Chairman is by attending the 2015 County Convention. Go ahead and register for the convention by clicking here.
If you want to elect a Republican President in 2016, it is our duty to build the Durham County Republican Party in 2015. We need you.
Patriotically & Conservatively Yours,
C. Theodore Hicks II
Chairman, Durham County Republican Party
