FALL CONFERENCE GOP Women's Conference to Give Pointers on Turning Illinois Red With their minds set on “Turning Illinois Red”, GOP women from across the state will head to southern Illinois in late August to share ideas, strengthen forces, and promote efforts that will help Republican officeholders get elected to local, state and federal posts. The Illinois Federation of Republican Women’s conference will be held Aug. 27-28 at the Holiday Inn Hotel and On Aug. 27, Randy Pollard, President of the Illinois Republican County Chairman's Association, and Bob Winchester, 19th Congressional District State Central Committeeman, will give tips on ensuring Republicans are the victors this November. The next day, the women will hear from the national Republican Women’s President, Sue Lynch, and will attend a series of workshops. A speaker from the Illinois State Board of Elections will address recent filing modifications. Statewide candidates will stop by to meet the attendees on both days.
