SDGOP Meeting December 9, 2013: Endorsement List and Christmas Party

The Republican Party of San Diego County met last night to celebrate the holidays and consider the endorsement for incumbent City Council candidates, from various cities, for the November 2014 election.  The Executive Committee met last week (I was absent) and recommended that the compiled list of candidates be endorsed.

I voted against the motion to endorse the compiled list of candidates.  I primarily opposed the endorsement because prior notificaton of the compiled list hadn't been distributed to the full committee for consideration.  As such, I felt that a potential conflict with the endorsement rules existed.  I secondarily felt that the election was too far away (11 months) to endorse.    The motion was defeated and the list of endorsed candidates will be considered at a future date.
