TCGOP Candidate Platform Review
In an effort to address grassroots frustrations with candidates and officeholders who run for office under our Party banner, yet lack an understanding of Republican principles, Rule 43 was adopted by the delegates at the 2008 Texas Republican Convention.
To comply with Rule 43, all candidates filing to run in the 2010 Tarrant County Republican Primary will be given a copy of the Texas Republican Platform to read, and a Candidate Platform Review Form which asks candidates if they agree, disagree or are undecided on 10 core Republican issues. Candidates are also asked to affirm that they have read the Texas Republican Platform. All responses obtained locally will be kept on file at Tarrant County Republican Headquarters.
It is understood that Judicial Candidates will not be able to complete the questions on the 10 core Republican issues. You are however, encouraged to read the Platform and sign the affirmation stating you have done so.
Should you have questions, comments or concerns please feel free to contact our office.
