What is State Central Committee?

The State Party Plan provides for a State Central Committee, elected principally along congressional district lines, to supervise the overall operation of the Party, especially in statewide campaigns such as governor and U.S. Senator. Among other things, the State Central Committee determines the method of nomination for statewide candidates, considers and adopts amendments to the State Party Plan, and resolves disputes over internal Party matters that work their way up from the local to the state level. The State Central Committee is the governing body for the Republican Party of Virginia and on January 21, 2012 it will meet to vote on the 2012 Presidential Intent Requirement (loyalty oath).

State Central is comprised of proven and dedicated Republicans who support the principles of the Republican Party and who vote for Republican Candidates. They are generally elected by the District Committees. VFRW also has representatives serving on State Central. At the Advance in December, Marie Quinn received the Seventh District Volunteer of the Year Award. For those of you who know Marie, you are aware of her endless work and commitment to the Republican Party. Doug and Brenda Rogers received the 7th District Volunteer of the Year Award in 2010.

Chairman Rogers is one of about 60 members of the State Central Committee. The Committee voted to have a Primary for the election of Republican Candidates for President and U.S. Senate to appear on the ballot in November, 2012. The Presidential Primary will be held on March 6, 2012 then on June 12 a Primary for U.S. Senate. On June 16, there will be a Republican Convention to elect the Virginia Committee Chair and approve any proposed amendments to the State Party Plan.
