AZ MIRROR
— Democrats, Republicans view precinct committeemen in very different lights. – JEREMY DUDA (COMMENT: Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) leaders appointed me to fill a vacant Republican Precinct Committeeman (RPC) position in 1999. I was elected RPC for that precinct in 2000 and every 2 years since.  Because MTRO leaders soon determined that I am too conservative for them, that is, because I promote too many planks in the Republican Party platform that they reject including the following planks, they would not appoint me now to fill a vacant RPC position: personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving). Further, they would not appoint me RPC now because they know that they cannot manipulate or dominate me and because I refuse to a) glorify and praise them, b) pander to them, c) serve as one of their operatives or dupes, d) cover up their wrong doing, or e) give them money. Further, they blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for all the defeats that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered since 2000. Further, they rudely had me removed from the Illinois Republican Party State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee this year. They rudely threw my April 2024 PC letter in their trash. They rudely had me removed as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021, a role that I had since 2005. They rudely killed my bid to be appointed to fill a Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019. They rudely gerrymandered my precinct in 2015. They rudely had me removed as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman in 2012. They rudely had me removed as a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member in 2011. They rudely had me removed me as MTRO webmaster in 2010 and 2004. They rudely had me removed as an Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee member in 2007. They almost rudely succeeded in getting ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006. They rudely killed my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer in 2004. According to them, I bring all my problems on myself, that is, I create all my own problems.)
