News Release | March 27, 2026
CUERO, TX –The Republican Party of Texas is preparing for its 2026 convention cycle, and DeWitt County voters will have several opportunities this month to participate in the party’s grassroots process. Local GOP leaders announced that all DeWitt County precincts will hold their precinct conventions on Saturday, March 28, 2026, at 10 a.m. at the Cuero VFW, followed by the County Convention at 2 p.m. the same day.
According to party materials, precinct conventions are the first step in the Republican convention structure. Any registered voter who has affiliated with the Republican Party—either by voting in the primary or by taking an oath of affiliation—is eligible to attend. Participants may introduce and vote on resolutions and elect delegates to the county‑level convention.
The county convention, also scheduled for March 28, allows elected delegates to consider committee reports, vote on resolutions, and select delegates and alternates to the state convention. Local party officials emphasize that these meetings shape the rules and platform positions that will guide the party for the next two years.
The Republican Party of Texas describes its convention system as a grassroots process in which delegates help define the party’s beliefs, adopt rules, and elect leadership. Delegates chosen at the county level will have the opportunity to attend the 2026 Texas GOP State Convention, scheduled for June 11–13 in Houston, with committee meetings beginning June 8.
Party organizers say the convention process is open to any Republican voter willing to participate. “Delegates play an instrumental role in shaping the direction of the party,” the informational materials state.
For questions about the DeWitt County conventions, local organizers list Judy Mazak, Precinct 301 Chair/Secretary, as the point of contact.
