Recently printed in the Star Dem...just a clue as to whats happening 'round these parts, folks.
Dear Editor,
These have been controversial times for the Republican Party in Queen Annes County and the resolution of these issues are at hand. It was with great joy that I received the news this morning that Andrew Langer and Barb Pivec were selected to represent the Republican Party as members of the Queen Annes Central Committee. Also appointed to Treasurer (a non voting position) was Deanna Couch. Mark Reed was appointed to be the Liaison for Teenage Republicans/Young Republicans.
There were a total of four applicants and any of them would have represented us exceptionally well. Perhaps this is why all of the applicants were given significant roles to fulfill for the Republican Central Committee. Central Committee members have a tough job in that it is “all guts and no glory“. They must deal with the running of the day to day Republican Party endeavors and have very little to say in governmental policy. In fact, having sat at many a Central Committee meeting, I can tell you that all of the discussions I have seen had to do with fundraising for the GOP or special projects such as voter‘s registration. Not very glamorous stuff at all but extremely necessary.
Central Committee is absolutely not about issues or platforms. The function of the Central Committee is to act as a team to further the cause of good government by enlisting the citizens involvement within the party. This requires lots of effort and very little thank you's because the public generally doesn’t realize the work required to keep a political party moving and growing. Basically, it requires the members to come to monthly meetings and actively participate in promoting the goals of the Republican Party. The fact that only four people applied for the position during the three week application period is testimony to the difficulties of the job. To act as a team and be successful in this job requires attendance and participation.
Once again, my sincere congratulations to all of our newest leaders on their appointment to the Central Committee, I am sure they will do a fabulous job!
Sincerely,
Andi Morony
President,
The Republican Club of Queen Annes County
