Leadership

The Republicans of Maine Township Organization

In the Illinois Republican Party structure, the Township’s ‘Regular’ Republican Organization is the grassroots level, led by a voter-elected Committeeman.  The Maine Township Committeeman appoints officers to the Organization’s Board of Directors in accordance with the Organization’s by-laws.   Precinct Captains and Co-Captains are also appointed by the Committeeman to serve one-year terms in accordance with the Organization’s by-laws.  Captains and Co-Captains share responsibility within electoral precincts in teams of two or more, and are aided by the Board of Directors and other seasoned party volunteers.

Precinct Captains organize diverse grassroots activities within their precincts and coordinate volunteers to accomplish voter outreach and education. For more information on how to contact your local Precinct Captain, or to become a Precinct Captain, email jim@romt.us
