Don't miss the Republican Roundup!

BISMARCK, ND – Today Republican State Chairman Gary Emineth emphasized the importance of the upcoming Republican Roundup. “We are one year out from the 2008 elections which makes this a great time for Republicans to gather and strategize for the upcoming campaign season,” said Emineth. “We look forward to a strong showing in 2008 as Governor Hoeven, with his strong leadership, runs for reelection at the top of our ticket.”

Emineth also stated, “That various leaders of Presidential Campaigns will be in Bismarck over the weekend of October 26 & 27. They include Tagg Romney, son of Mitt Romney, Mark Campbell, National Political Director of the Giuliani Campaign, and Rich Galen, National Advisor of the Thompson Campaign. Even though this Straw Poll is non-binding, it will give us an indication about how the Party may vote during the February 5th Presidential Caucus. During that Caucus we will determine the number of delegates each Republican Presidential Candidate will receive at the National Convention.” The Republican State Central Committee recently changed their bylaws, requiring a candidate to receive a minimum of 15% of the total ballots cast to be eligible to receive any of North Dakota’s National Convention Delegates.
