DCRP Executive Committee
actions
at 2009-11-24 meeting:
DCRP Executive Committee
Passes Motion
to remove
First Vice Chair by a vote of 14 to 5.
Official
DCRP
Statement
regarding removal of
First Vice-Chair Matt Collins.
|
Additional Comments
from Chairman Starnes:
The removal of Matt
Collins from his position as First Vice Chair
and as a member of the Davidson County
Republican Party’s Executive Committee on
November 24th, 2009 was not easy, nor one we
took lightly.
However, DCRP Board
members must be able to function as a team and
not place a personal agenda above the Party’s
agenda. When that happens, coupled with
behavior and words that are disrespectful to
Republican candidates or elected officials, the
focus becomes on a person rather than the
important issues at hand.
The vote of 14 members
to five for the removal of Mr. Collins affirmed
an earlier vote establishing a motion for
removal and also demonstrated the Board’s
commitment to maintain a standard of
professionalism and civility among its
leadership.

Starnes

Core Values Document and

From the Chairman:
THE PROMISE OF PROSPERITY
THE PROMISE OF PROSPERITY
I can't wait to work with you to advance our common goal of reviewing America's commitment to individual liberty.
Together we will educate our neighbors, our friends, our family members and ultimately our community on the true objective of conservatism: the promise of prosperity through limited government, low taxes and a commitment to security.
This website is an important resource in our education process. We would like DavidsonCountyGOP.org to become a one stop website where not only can you tap into everything you need to know about the DCRP but also link to information concerning current legislation and roll calls, our State and US congressional leaders, our local government officials and important political news and commentary.
We are in the process of planning and implementing these changes so come back and visit us often, share your ideas, and join us!
