Understanding the Nuts & Bolts of Montgomery County Politics: What Every Republican Voter Should Know
Election seasons in Montgomery County can be fast-paced and unpredictable. Republican voters in Montgomery County deserve clarity, transparency, and FACTS. Especially in a political climate that is loud and fast.
Amid the noise, it’s more important than ever to understand how our local Republican Party functions, and how a small group of people can influence outcomes that affect all of us.
For those new to our organization, the Republican Voters of Texas PAC (RVTX) was founded by local, common-sense Conservatives who believe in facts, fairness, community involvement, and putting people over politics. We are your neighbors, not political operatives, and we are dedicated to helping Republican voters make informed decisions.
The Structure of Local GOP Leadership: Why Precinct Chairs Matter
Many voters are surprised to learn how much power is held at the precinct level. In Texas, Precinct Chairs are elected during the Primary Election. They serve as the official representatives of the Republican Party for their neighborhoods.
Their responsibilities include:
-
Attending regular County Executive Committee (CEC) meetings
-
Registering voters
-
Sharing accurate Republican information
-
Encouraging voter turnout
-
Supporting GOP nominees
-
Participating in conventions and Election Day operations
-
Building relationships within the community
There are 113 precinct chair positions in Montgomery County. While only a handful are vacant, attendance at CEC meetings often averages around 72. Out of those, roughly 25–30 consistently vote with a far-right faction that has worked strategically for years to gain majority control, and they now have it.
​
This makes the role of Precinct Chair far more consequential than many voters realize. Our current CEC has shifted away from the mission to promote Republican principles, encourage voter engagement, and help build a strong, united Party. Instead, certain members have embraced divisive tactics that weaken the Republican Party and mislead voters.
If you are even having to come to this page to read up on this, we apologize up front. Things are NOT as they should be. Life should be lived such that we win friends and influence people, but sometimes in doing so, you can still have those who don't like you.
​
There is a long back history to much of the current controversy in the county. In 2018, Republican Voters of Texas PAC formed in part because there was a huge need to UNIFY the County Party and encourage a higher level of INTEGRITY amongst elected officials. And, to a large degree, RVTX PAC has encouraged and mostly succeeded in keeping in office those of integrity and putting in new folks where there were issues or unqualified or unethical candidates were running. We believe in campaigning with integrity and that each candidate should run of their own merit and we do not tolerate ill behavior at the polls or online from our endorsed candidates.
​
Each Republican Primary it seems that there are one or two critical races that require the most attention. In the 2024 Primary, it was the Montgomery County Republican Party Chair race and the Precinct Chair races.
​
Why are these races critical?
​
The role of the Precinct Chair is the smallest yet perhaps most important role in the Party. These people not only get out the vote and serve as your election judges to help maintain election integrity, they also serve on the Montgomery County Republican Party County Executive Committee (aka CEC) where they determine the FLAVOR OF REPUBLICANISM in our county.
​
The role of the County Chair is to oversee the County Executive Committee, to lead the county to get out the vote, and to report candidates to the State who want to be on the ballot, amongst many other small roles.
​
This may seem unimportant, but when these small elected officials at these lower levels begin to pursue power, control, and their own agendas, things go very haywire.
​
These roles control directly and indirectly what gets into the Republican Platform, which affects the ENTIRE NATION.
​
These roles could in the wrong hands control, but currently do not, who is ALLOWED ON THE BALLOT.
​
These roles could determine in the wrong hands, who is allowed on the ballot in the local REPUBLICAN PRIMARY. (There was pressure this primary to keep a sheriff candidate some folks didn't like off the ballot.)
​
These roles determine the flavor of REPUBLICANISM in your county. This is not a made up controversy. It's real. Do your research.
​
DO YOU WANT PEOPLE OF INTEGRITY?
PEOPLE WHO REPRESENT YOU?
PEOPLE WHO FIGHT FOR LIFE & LIBERTY instead of personal agenda?
​
Republican Voters of Texas PAC has many Advisory Board members who are also Precinct Chairs. In that role, each Precinct Chair does not represent the PAC, but their own ideals and those of their constituents.
​
But, as RVTX PAC, we do have a position on the controversy. We are interested above all in PARTY UNITY. We are interested in PARTY ETHICS. We are interested in members of the County Executive Committee being people known for not only taking positive action, but GETTING ALONG WITH OTHERS so we can promote REPUBLICANISM.
​
In the 2024 Primary, RVTX PAC strongly endorsed Bryan Christ for Republican County Chairman because we believed in the ideals Mr. Christ stands for. Don't believe everything you hear. Unfortunately, Chairman Christ lost this bid in the Primary.
​
We still believe that the County Chairman should continue to be an ELECTED POSITION BY THE VOTER. This is being slowly taken away in many counties. (Want more info on this -ask.)
​
We believe that the County Chairman ELECTED BY THE VOTER whose job is to register those who want to be on the ballot, should allow anyone who legally applies to be on the ballot to be on the ballot and LET THE VOTER DECIDE WHO IS TRULY REPUBLICAN.
​
As a PAC, Republican Voters of Texas PAC stands behind your right to VOTE as the VOTER, your right to a VOICE in the Republican Party.
