Steps to Electing Strong Conservatives in the Primary
September 10, 2023 | Montgomery County, TX
The March 2024 Primary Election is an opportunity for voters to elect strong Conservatives by first doing our research and then supporting candidates who will support our values.
The Primary Election: Why Is It So Important?
We can no longer elect the person with the most appealing commercials or vote for those listed on a voter guide received in the parking lot of our polling locations without first understanding the goals of the organization who printed the voter guide.
RINOs/Uni-Party vs. Conservatives Comparison
By following the steps below, we as voters can spread conservative Texas values across Montgomery County. It is the mission of the Montgomery County Republican Party to encourage voter participation in all elections and to provide voters with the information they need to make informed decisions at the polls.
1. Research the Candidates
The Primary Election is the time when political parties choose who will represent them on the General Election ballot. We want voters to choose true Conservative Republicans instead of Republicans in Name Only (RINOs) or Uni-Party candidates! Now is the time to become familiar with your current elected officials, evaluate their job performance, and decide if you want to re-hire them for another term.
Look up how your Texas legislators voted on issues important to you:
Did your elected lawmakers fulfill their promises to you, the voter? How did they vote regarding the Legislative Priorities of the Republican Party?
Learn how to look up your Texas legislators’ votes on key bills.
View bills filed by your Texas legislators:
Did your legislators champion bills supporting the Legislative Priorities? If they supported legislation that undermined the Party and Party Principles, then they are not representing you and should be replaced.
Attend Grassroots Events:
There are several local conservative organizations that research candidates and can help you make informed decisions in local elections. Attending meetings of these groups can make you a more informed voter, preparing you to take back our country in 2024. Some of these groups vet candidates and publish trustworthy voter guides, and others offer candidate forums so you can hear directly from candidates prior to the election.
Attend Montgomery County Republican Party Meetings:
We’d love to meet you in person at our next Republican Party meeting! We are so thankful for the dedicated volunteers who work tirelessly every single day to keep Montgomery County RED and need more to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with them when they become weary in the fight. All county Republicans are welcome.
“Politics ought to be the part-time profession of every citizen who would protect the rights and privileges of free people and who would preserve what is good and fruitful in our national heritage.”
President Dwight Eisenhower
Attend Local Boards & Government Meetings:
Staying apprised of what’s happening at the local government level is often overlooked by voters, but is key to taking back our country. The selection of true conservative candidates takes place in the Primary!
Non-partisan boards such as school boards and city councils determine about 90 percent of your taxes. If you are not paying close attention to what they are doing, you will pay the price.
Did you know that YOUR tax dollars are paying for obscene books in our public schools? Leftist activists are showing up to school board meetings, but few Christian Conservatives speak out at these meetings. We need to wake the "sleeping giant” and get involved!
Visit our calendar to view the latest board meetings taking place in Montgomery County. Select “Local Boards & Government” from the drop-down menu to the right of the calendar to view only local board meetings.

2. Understand Voter Guides
Every election cycle we have groups such as the “Texas Conservative Tea Party Coalition” aka the Fake Tea Party, the condemned “Republican Voters of Texas PAC,” and the brand new “Montgomery County Republican Club PAC.” These groups attempt to blur the lines between their organizations and the actual Republican Party in an effort to deceive voters into voting for their preferred candidates. Some of these organizations are “pay-to-play,” meaning the candidates are paying to be listed on their voter guides as part of their campaigns.
Attend our meetings and contact your Precinct Chair to get involved locally. Your neighbors need to know how to research candidates and where to find trustworthy voter guides. Send people to our website at mctxgop.org and encourage them to attend our meetings and local grassroots organizations. You are key to helping your neighbors make educated decisions at the polls!
3. Recruit People To “Get Out the Vote” and Run for Office
All concerned citizens are needed to keep Texas free and save America. From block-walking to serving as an election worker or helping on a committee, we’re always in need of patriots willing to stand up for conservative values by getting out the vote or running for office. Please join us to get true Conservative Republicans elected. Contact us if you have questions about how to help or run for office.
Supporting events like the Drive the Vote Golf Tournament allows the Montgomery County Republican Party to send mailers, text messages, and other forms of advertising to educate voters and encourage them to vote their conservative values. Your participation or sponsorship makes a huge difference in how many people we can reach during the Primary Election.
4. Hold Elected Officials Accountable
Once we elect strong Conservatives, it’s important to hold them accountable to the promises they made during their campaigns. Stay involved and follow the decisions they make in office. We the People have been asleep on the job for too long. It’s time to get involved and take back America.
Before we can evaluate the job performance of our elected officials, we must commit to pray for them. On May 13, the Montgomery County Republican Party kicked off the Full Armor of God, Montgomery County Prays prayer campaign by uniting to pray Ephesians 6:11-18 over our elected officials.
Our elected officials are under constant and relentless attack. As Christians, we must cover them in prayer to help ensure that they are wearing the full armor of God. We are committed to interceding daily on their behalf and invite you to pray with us for our elected officials.
