The Campbell County Republican Party met on Saturday, March 11, 2017 to reorganize the party leadership. 

The Campbell County Republican Party met on Saturday, March 11 at Northern Kentucky University to select their next leadership executive board.

There has been a rift growing between two different groups within the party.

The meeting began shortly after 10:00 a.m., when the party elected 106 precinct officers, who then in turn, voted for the five executive committee members. When 4th District Chairman, Troy Sheldon, banged his gavel just after noon, the party had shifted.

This is an advertisement. 

The new leadership that was elected was Sarah Cameron (Chairman - Fort Thomas), John Hengelbrok (Vice Chair - Fort Thomas), Anthony Cadle (Secretary - Dayton), Sandy Shaw (Treasurer - Alexandria) and Kristin Turner (Youth Chair - Alexandria).

Still left to figure out: will the county party be led by those five plus four at-large members? How will those at-large members be tapped? Could a "County Committee" be a viable form of leadership, which would give the 106 precinct officers an equal vote.

Fort Thomas Matters was in attendance and talked with stakeholders and those who ran the meeting.
