2023  Reorganization

Every odd numbered year the County Republican Parties across the State of Tennessee are required to reorganize and elect new leadership.

Per the TN GOP Bylaws, the Blount County Republican Party will be reorganizing through a Precinct Convention Process.  This process, which is laid out by the Tennessee Republican Party Bylaws, gives those who have been activley involved in the Republican Party a chance to gather together and elect both Precinct and County-Wide leadership.

To be eligible to participate in the Precinct Conventions, a person must meet certain requirements:

  1. Must reside in the Precinct;

  2. Must be registered to Vote in Blount County;

  3. Must have voted in three (3) of the last four (4) statewide Republican Primaries; and

  4. Must have been actively involved in the Tennessee Republican Party, the Blount County Republican Party, or a recognized affiliate of the Party (for the Blount County Republican Party, the recognized affiliates are the Blount County Republican Women and the Blount County Young Republicans).

  5. Photo ID will also be required.

Any issues related to eligibility will be determined first by the Contest and Credentials Committee for the 2023 Reorganization process.  We are only able to check voter history for elections in Blount County.  If you are relying on voting records from a different county/state, you will be required to bring those records with you.  Questions for the Contest and Credentials Committee can be submitted to info@blountgop.com.

If you believe you meet the qualifications to participate in your Precinct Convention, we ask that you please pre-register below so that we can keep the process moving as quickly as possible on the scheduled dates (which can be found in the schedule below).

If you do not meet the qualifications for the Precinct Convention, but would like to get involved, we encourage you to sign up on our "Contact Us" page.  Every year we get new volunteers ready to support the Republican Party and help Keep Blount Conservative!   If you are new to Blount County, or want to get newly involved with the Party, your participation is much appreciated.  We encourage you to check out our monthly meetings, hosted by the Blount County Republican Women on the 4th Monday of the month, and/or attend our annual Lincoln Day Dinner and other special events throughout the year.  These sort of activities will get you involved so you can meet new Republicans, support our Party, and be qualified to participate in the Precinct Conventions in the future!
