Our Structure

The Republican party is a grassroots organization.  From national to state to township level, it starts with you.

Precinct Committeemen

Precinct committeeman are incredibly important to the organization.  They go knocking on doors in your neighborhood gathering support for our party and candidates.  Most importantly, every four years, precinct committeemen and vice-committeemen are able to vote for a county chairman, vice-chairman, secretary and treasurer.

County Chairman

The county chairman, along with the executive committee, make decisions on the direction of the party at the local level.  They recruit and support candidates to run for city, county and township offices.  The county chairman and vice-chairman are able to vote for a district chairman, vice-chairman, secretary and treasurer.

District Chairman

Each Congressional district has a Republican committee whose purpose is to assist in the election of a Republican Congressman from that district.  The district chairman and vice-chairman sit on the state committee which is the state party's governing body.  These committeemen are able to vote for a national committeeman and committeewoman as well as for the state chairman.

State Chairman

The state chairman is the head of the Republican party in his or her state.  It is their job to support Republican candidates for statewide offices.  The state chairman is able to vote for the Republican National Committee (RNC) if their state voted Republican in the preceding presidential election, have a republican majority in their congressional delegation (U.S. representatives and senators), or have Republican governors.  Kyle Hupfer is the current Chairman of the Indiana State Republican Party.

National Committeemen

National Committeemen, regardless of which party is in control of their state, are able to vote for a chairman of the Republican National Committee.

Republican National Committee Chairman

The RNC chairman is a two year term and guides the party's national effort to elect a Republican President and Republican members of Congress.  Currently, Ronna McDaniel serves as the Chair of the RNC.
