Bart Haggerty, Board of Elections Queens Borough Deputy Chief, who has served as Director of Music Ministry at St. Gregory the Great and chief of staff to City Councilman Eric Ulrich, has prepared this informative primer on the Republican Party organization in Queens. In a nutshell, it covers the nuts and bolts on becoming a county committeeman, state committeeman, getting on the ballot, petitions, party elections, and much more. 2015 is the year we will build the Republican Party from the grassroots up. This primer will serve as our guide.
