LONGVIEW, TX – Learning that he will be unopposed, Keith Rothra, accepts the position as Chairman of the Gregg County Republican Party. “I heard the call to serve and look forward to leading the party to future success,” Rothra said. The filing deadline was January 2, 2008.

Keith Rothra announced his candidacy on December 14, 2007. Rothra was the only person to file for Republican Chairman. As a result, Rothra will become the new Chairman following the primary election.

Rothra’s campaign called for uniting the party and overcoming divisive factions that developed over many years. As incoming Chairman, Rothra calls on every member of the Republican Party to come together saying, “Only together can we win in 2008; only together can we ensure that the next President is a Republican.”

Dorothy Khoury, who did not file for re-election, served as Chairwoman for the past six years. “Gregg County owes Mrs. Khoury many thanks for her service, dedication, and efforts in the Republican Party,” Rothra said.

Keith Rothra has worked in the Gregg Republican Party since 1993 after retiring from the US Air Force. Rothra also teaches state and local government for LeTourneau University, Kilgore College, and Texas A&M at Texarkana. He also has been in Christian ministry for over twenty years.

It’s a new year. Time to put old habits away and look to a refreshing future.
2008 Happy New Year
Every New Year, people make resolutions about what they will do to improve one aspect of their life or another. Recent years have seen the Gregg County Republican Party become more splintered and factionalized, resulting in a decline in influence, size, and participation. This year, I add one more resolution: I resolve to work with you as we reunite the Republican Party.

It’s is time to put aside past factionalism and reunite for victory.

The social bookmark submission buttons have been updated. They are located on the right side under the heading “Bookmark.” Currently, four social bookmarking services are featured: Digg, Reddit, del.icio.us, and FaithTag. These four replace the “Socializer” button that was located in this section due to some technical problems with the Socializer system.

All four services require membership, which is free for each of them. The primary advantage to using these services is the ability to let others know about what we are doing here at the Keith Rothra campaign. Also, site visitors and supporters can share specific articles of special interest with others.
