The Dallas County Republican Party Claims It Will Be the First Large County In the Country to Conduct a Hand-Marked, Hand-Counted Primary
In a series of recent meetings, the Dallas County Republican Party has made it clear that it intends to conduct a precinct-specific, hand-marked, hand-counted primary in March 2026. That is very exciting. It is what we all have been waiting for and anticipating. After all, that is what Chairman Allen West promised us during his 2024 primary campaign. But, has anyone seen the DCRP’s plan? Have 3,000+ hand counters been identified and confirmed? How much are they being paid? And perhaps most importantly, has the money been raised and secured to fund the hand-counted primary? According to the DCRP’s last Federal Ethics Commission Report in July 2025, the Party had approximately $137,000.00 in the bank with a monthly burn rate of approximately $23,000.00 a month. A very conservative estimate of the amount needed just to pay the workers in a hand-counted primary far exceeds $800,000.00 and that amount does not take into account the cost of the equipment and supplies.

Where Else can you wade into a throng of 9,000 die-hard Republican voters? Only at the Texas State Republican Convention! If you have never attended, what are you waiting for? As it is a 3 step process, many people are put off by the process by which you get there. But with a little bit of planning, you can get your PTO arranged, transportation to Houston and back and find a roommate/buddy to share that hotel expense. Texas has been red for all these years because 9,000 of you step up every year to be a part of this! It is an honor and a privilege to be a Texas State Convention Delegate and/or Alternate Delegate and represent your Senate District and active Republicans who want to go are likely to be elected as a delegate to attend.

Precinct Chairs are the backbone of the Republican Party.

If you are willing to make a difference in your precinct to help reach Republicans in your area to be aware of upcoming elections and important elections, whether they be national, state or local in nature.
