Party Platform Resolutions
One activity in this Precinct Caucus is Offering up Amendments to existing Party Platform “Planks” or coming up with new ones. So go to the existing Republican Party of Minnesota (MNGOP) Platform below and look to see where your resolution would fall into and then list what section and then what your resolution is. 1 resolution per copy. So if you have more than 1 resolution print off however many ones you want to submit in your specific precinct. They will be voted upon there. Then at the HD 66B Republican Convention they will be voted upon again and if passed they will go the CD4 Republican Convention and up to the State Party Convention eventually.

Gubernatorial “Straw Poll”
There will be a Straw Poll which is a Preference Poll on who the attendees of the caucus prefer. It is not an endorsement of a candidate. It is also not binding, meaning the candidates can’t claim some sort of ranking versus other candidates that means anything. It helps the several campaigns for Republican Nomination for Minnesota Governor where they are in the campaigns. A number of campaigns might drop out after this Preference Poll.
What to know:
- Are you in the right Precinct Caucus? Use caucusfinder.sos.mn.gov to find out what House & Senate District as well as what Saint Paul Ward and Precinct you live in .
- Your caucus location ISN’T your polling location.
- Candidate Caucus Letters will be read, at least for the Governor’s race as there are so many candidates who are running this year.
- There will be a Preference Poll for the Governor’s Race, commonly called a “Straw Poll.” This is not an endorsement.
- Party Platform Resolutions are about the Beliefs of the Republican Party of Minnesota. Here is the 2026 Party Platform Resolutions PDF.
- Delegates & Alternates will be elected in each of the 9 St Paul Precincts in House District 66B (Ward 5 Precincts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9 and Ward 6 Precinct 6). These are 2 year terms and will end in 2028 at the next Precinct Caucus.
- Precinct Officers will be elected in each Precinct. (Chair, Deputy Chair, Secretary). These are 2 year terms. Precinct Officers and their Delegates & Alternates may do precinct level activities. You can have Block Captains.
- BPOU or Local Party Unit Executive Leadership is elected in the Odd Years and those terms are for 2 yrs. The next leadership election is in 2027.
- Candidate Campaign Contact Info will be on our website until there is an endorsement. Then only the endorsed candidate’s information will remain on the Candidates Page, unless they are defeated in the Primary in August, then the Primary winner’s information will remain until the election is done.
- Precincts will collect any at-will donations from attendees (it is not required to give a donation). If you want to donate more money than $20 individually you’ll have to see our chair and submit some information about yourself and your employer. If you want to donate money to us you can find our Donations Page and even submit your PCR there.
If this is your first time, or your nth time and you’ve forgotten what the terms are flying about and you’re not really sure how all of what you heard fits together here’s a flow chart:
