All County Chairs have to be elected, but it is not unusual at all that a county chair be appointed by the State Party, if a county has no chair, or needs to replace one mid term.    If appointed, then that person will stand for office on the next November election during a presidential or midterm year.   There are certain requirements to file for the position, and TDCCA provides more detailed information on the process.  Please reach out to us through the button below.
