The Missouri Republican Party announced it is calling for a new St. Charles County Caucus “after an earlier attempt ended amidst controversy last Saturday."

The caucus will be at 7 p.m. April 10 at the St. Charles County Convention Center. That is 11 days before the Congressional District Conventions. The state convention is June 1-2 in Springfield.

“Since Saturday, we have reviewed our options to determine the best way to move forward while ensuring that the voice of St Charles has been heard. We have concluded that the only proper remedy for this situation is to schedule a new St Charles County Caucus,” said David Cole, Chairman of the Missouri Republican Party, according to a news release.
“I want to make it clear to the people of St. Charles County that we will conduct this caucus in a fair, honest, and transparent manner,” Cole said.
Cole will open the meeting as temporary chairman, and the state GOP’s general counsel will serve as the parliamentarian.
