Welcome to the Harris County Republican Party’s official web site. Harris County is a growing county that currently has 29,000 residents, but is projected to have 100,000 residents by 2030. The Republican revolution in Georgia and the South began in Harris County. In 1964, Howard “Bo” Callaway was elected as the first Republican Congressman from Georgia since 1875. Two years later he ran for Governor. During that run for Governor the Georgia Republican Party was born. It has continued to grow and today controls the Governor’s office and both houses of the State legislature. On the national level we have two Republican Senators and 7 out of 13 members of the House of Representatives. Locally, we are very proud that today, we are one of the most Republican counties in the state and all but one elected official who represents the county is a Republican.

News, Info, and Quotes
"The American people, the most generous on earth, who created the highest standard of living, are not going to accept the notion that we can only make a better world for others by moving backwards ourselves. Those who believe we can have no business leading the nation. I will not stand by and watch this great country destroy itself under mediocre leadership that drifts from one crisis to the next, eroding our national will and purpose. We have come together here because the American people deserve better from those to whom they entrust our nation's highest offices, and we stand united in our resolve to do something about it." ~ Ronald Reagan
"We must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt." ~ Thomas Jefferson
