Republican Central Committee sets July 26 to finish state convention

The Executive Board of the Nevada Republican State Central Committee has set July 26 as the official date to reconvene the Nevada State Republican Convention. The convention will be held in the same place it started, at the Peppermill Hotel and Casino in Reno, Nevada.

A record number of delegates were credentialed at the 2008 Nevada Republican Convention before it was called to recess on April 26th 2008. The convention has already passed rules, bylaws, credentials, a platform, and elected national committee members.

"We are excited about completing business and moving on towards our end goal of electing Republicans in November," stated Chairman Sue Lowden. "Our Executive Committee has worked hard to secure a location, insurance, and the necessary security precautions for the reconvening of the convention. All credentialed delegates will receive notification of the date and location by mail."

Nevada has 34 delegates to the Republican National Convention. State Chairman Sue Lowden, National Committeeman Joe Brown, and National Committeewoman Beverly Willard are automatic delegates to the convention which will be held September 1st through the 4th in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
