Obviously my contacts with the Porter County Democrats aren't as dialed in, as those with the Republicans, so if someone has information on the Democrat side please leave in comments or email me and I'll add.
On the Republican side, there will be a caucus on March 7th at the Porter County Government Center in downtown Valparaiso to choose the new chair. Rumors are swirling, and may come to a rest later today or tomorrow that this will be a contested election. That should make things fun. Current Chairman Chuck Williams is not running for re-election. Watch here later today and for more details on the caucus, the candidates (we'll try to get interviews before the press does) and any related events for next week.
For those that complained the party was out of sync with the grass roots, this would be an opportunity to get engaged, to talk to the candidates, and to help choose both new leadership and strategy.
