We promise to put the GOP clearly on the side of True Reform of Arizona Election Laws: mail-ins limited to true absentees, and precinct hand counts. Empower PCs to make the Party grassroots, not top down. |
Craig Berland – Chair | Election Integrity and Party unification from the State GOP to the precinct including our Elected Officials. I am Craig Berland and I seek your vote for Chair of the MCRC Board along with the #TeamTruth slate of candidates. I am a retired businessman with many years of success and experience in dealing with large companies like Boeing and Lockheed. I will bring my business discipline and organizational skills to the MCRC Executive Board. The #TeamTruth slate is deeply involved with saving our Republic as well as with election integrity efforts. Maricopa County is the second largest voting county in the United States. My business discipline and quest for measurable success through an encouraging management style will benefit the MCRC Executive Guidance Committee.

Shelby Busch 1st Vice-Chair | The primary mission of a PC is to get Republican candidates elected and this MUST start by working to fix our broken election system. We must empower our PCs and equip them with the tools they need to truly make a difference and help them become ambassadors for their communities. I plan to: Work with Chairman to create an election integrity committee that will assist MCRC in developing and implementing our own voter database to maintain local ownership. This will bring flexibility to the LDs to download needed data for their LD, work on voter roll cleanup, and proactively work on PC recruitment and GOTV drives. This committee will also keep up to date on election related activities, communicate concerns to and from our county elections department, and work on election related legislation. Assist the Chairman in creating a legislative engagement committee composed of PCs from all LDs to actively communicate with our legislators our positions on proposed legislation and initiate and/or support good legislation. Help educate the PCs on how to be citizen lobbyists. Advocate to create an advisory committee composed of grassroot org leaders that will help increase party reach, communications, and manpower. Create community between the grassroots activists and candidates and the MCRC. Please do not hesitate to contact Shelby any time at [email protected] | |
Jeff Greenspan 2nd Vice-Chair | We must focus on self-governance and national self-reliance. Never give up. Never give in. Never compromise our Republican principles. Up through 2016, Maricopa County was a model to counties throughout the country for 30 years on how to conduct elections. We knew the results by the 10pm news every election for 30 years. Suddenly since Fontes, Richer, and Hobbs took over elections, Maricopa County elections have been a catastrophe, on par with Philadelphia elections. Let’s not pretend we don’t know how it’s done – at the precinct, volunteers from each party agree on precinct counts and results and call them in. One day voting at one’s own precinct, one ID, one person, one ballot. Stop the nonsense. Richer and Gates need to resign. The MCRC needs to be the voice of the PCs, not the other way around. Please do not hesitate to contact Jeff any time at [email protected] | |
Lawrence Hudson Treasurer | In 2020 we learned that a strategy of winning votes loses to a strategy of collecting ballots. That should cause us to rethink our strategy, but that hasn’t happened yet. I have been a PC only since 2018. Since 2020, I have mostly worked with Liz Harris’ team of volunteers. My relative inexperience at party affairs is a good thing. The Republican party has mostly opposed our work in election integrity. They have denied us data that is ours by statute. They have tried to tell us voters don’t care about election integrity and that we will lose elections if we talk about it. They are now telling us that we lost the 2022 elections because we nominated candidates who fought for election integrity. Most of the PCs who have volunteered since 2020 just want to save their country. Being new permits us to see more clearly the dire state we are in. I pledge to use my vote on the executive committee to put our party clearly on the side of election integrity. We must pressure our lawmakers. We must be able to clearly see their defects. Once we stand for principle and not for process, we should find it easier to raise money — so that we may be more independent of the national party –, and we should find it easier to recruit and retain PCs. Please do not hesitate to contact Lawrence any time at [email protected] | |
Diana Jones Secretary | Honor, Duty, Country Party unity and Election Reform. We need to work on election integrity and try to get a more accurate database for registered voters. Campaign sidekick and GOP Data are not being kept up to date. Some of their information is five years outdated. I want to be part of the team trying to solve problems instead of just being a do-nothing complainer. Please do not hesitate to contact Diana any time at [email protected] |
