CHANGES TO THE 2020 PROCESS

In light of the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic, the Missouri Republican State Committee has voted to change the 2020 caucus and convention process. The RNC has approved a waiver to allow Missouri to conduct its Congressional District Conventions by mail-in ballot. Congressional District ballots were delivered to delegates and alternates in mid-May, and results will be announced on May 30.

We expect the RNC to grant a waiver to allow Missouri to conduct our State Convention by mail-in ballot as well. Please see below for additional information about the new process.
