New RNC Rules Keep Iowa First

Exemption slates Iowa caucuses February 2012

Republican Party of Iowa Chairman Matt Strawn announced that the Republican National Committee (RNC) today adopted new rules that recognize and protect Iowa's First-in-the-Nation presidential caucus. The vote came during the RNC’s summer meeting in Kansas City.

Under the rules adopted today, Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada may hold their delegate preference events in February 2012. Any remaining state that holds their primary or caucus in March must allocate their delegates proportionally. The new rules offer an incentive for states to wait until April, so they can award delegates in a winner-take-all system.

Strawn said, “The new rules recognize Iowa’s unique and traditional ‘First-in-the-Nation’ status in the presidential selection process. Presidential candidates have long asked for some stability in the nominating process, and the rule enacted today provides that stability. Also, this allows Iowa to hold its caucuses in February, instead of right after the holidays. That makes it easier for candidates, their volunteers, and voters.”

Strawn noted the new rule is designed to avoid the push for a so-called national primary day and encouraging candidates to travel to more states during the presidential primary process.

The Democratic National Committee is working on a similar plan, to be finalized at their meeting later this month.

Why we are Republicans.

We believe in equal rights, equal justice, and equal opportunity for all regardless of race, creed, age, sex or national origin.

We believe that the proper function of government is to do for the people things that have to be done, but cannot be done , or cannot be done as well, by individuals, and that the most effective government is that closest to the people.

We believe that good government is based upon the individual and that each person's ability, dignity, freedom and responsibility must be honored and recognized.

We believe that free enterprise and the encouragement of individual initiative and incentive have given this nation an economic system second to none.

We believe in progressive forward movement and being receptive to new ideas with an outlook broad enough to accommodate thoughtful change and diverse points of view.

We  believe that American values and a feeling of strength and pride should be preserved and shared with people throughout the world through our advocacy of peace, freedom, and human rights.
