Chairman's Message - Feb 2026

 "If we are to guard against ignorance and remain free, it is the responsiblity of every American to be informed"~Thomas Jefferson

The main responsibility of the Sonoma County Republican Central Committee is to inform Republican Voters about upcoming elections and candidates who are running for office. We provide candidate information and invite candidates to speak. We need every Republican voter to be informed and ready to vote in every election. In the recent election in November of 2025 there were over 20,000 Republicans who did not vote.

The Primary Election is scheduled for Tuesday, June 2, 2026. Ballots begin arriving in our mailboxes the week of May 4th.

Our new Registrar, Evelyn Mendez posted on their website the following offices up for election here in Sonoma County. Candidate nominations open Monday, February 9th and close Friday, March 6, 2026.
