GOPUSA ILLINOIS
Unanswered questions concerning the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— Who represents each of the 17 congressional districts on the committee and what is their contact information?
— Who has replaced me as the member who represents the 3rd Congressional District and what reasons have been given for my removal?
— At the IRP State Convention in Collinsville May 24-25, which committee members are going to vote on May 24 for the resolution that calls for direct election of IRP State Central Committee members?
— At the convention on May 24, which committee members are going to vote to strengthen or to weaken calls for promoting the following in the platform: personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, enforcement of immigration laws including adding E-Verity, discouragement of booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, protection of Second Amendment rights, and equal opportunity (no race of gender based preference giving)?

— What do political consultants in Illinois who want Republican candidates to lose advise Illinois Republican Party (IRP) leaders and their candidates to do? – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The IRP platform in conservative. I am one of the extremely few Republican political consultants in Illinois. I have been a member of the American Association of Political Consultants since 2001. I served on the board of directors of its Midwest Chapter 2001-2004. I want Republican candidates to win. Political consultants in Illinois who want Republican candidates to lose do not advise the IRP leaders or their candidates to defend and advance the IRP platform. Instead, they advise the IRP leaders and their candidates to ignore the platform, to paint themselves as being Democrat Lite if not anti-conservative, and to give the voters what they want. According to them, Illinois voters want dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and race and gender based preference giving. Far too many IRP leaders and far too many of their candidates have taken that advice and are taking that advice. That is why Republican candidates are losing elections. That is why I am extremely concerned that efforts are under way under the table to move the new IRP platform to the left.

— Chicago Mayor Johnson RTA board nominee coming under fire for lack of transit knowledge. – Sarah Schulte (COMMENT: What do you have knowledge of? I have knowledge of IRS. GAO audits IRS. The Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997 wasted my knowledge of IRS. I should write a book about my GAO coworkers who they assigned to audits of IRS instead of me. They knew little or nothing about IRS. When I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980, I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $97,079-$110,020/year. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt and I had earned an MBA from Loyola. The Democrats who ran IRS and GAO back then certainly did not want Republicans like me to work on audits of IRS. They succeeded in keeping me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO.)
