The Porter County Republican Party held a caucus on Saturday, March 4, 2017 to elect the new party leadership team that will each serve a four year term. Re-elected to their respective positions are Michael Simpson, County Chairman (Center-R) and Victoria Gresham, Vice Chair (Center-Left); Krista Tracy, Treasurer (Right) formerly served as party secretary and will take on a new role with the leadership team. Bryan Waisanen, Secretary (Left) will join the team as the newest member. The leadership team is a strong representation of the four county districts, which include the Valparaiso/Center Township District, Portage Township District, the Duneland District and the South County District.

The Porter County Republican Party is proud to announce the newly elected Party Officers and the District Committees for the 2017-2021 term. The GOP Central Committee comprises the four districts of Porter County along with its officeholders. We are pleased to have some new team members on board!

Moving forward, we will continue to focus on the following:

1) Party growth and participation within the political and electoral process

2) Open communication lines with members, elected officials, supporters and community

3) To elect more Republicans into office at all levels of government
