Heimlich elected as new WSRP chairman

Moses Lake, WA – It’s official, the Washington State Republican Party has elected its new Chairman – WSRP Executive Director and Chief of Staff Caleb Heimlich.  After just one round of voting at the 2018 January State Committee Meeting held in Moses Lake, WA, Heimlich was elected with over 70% of the vote.

Having served the WSRP since 2011, formerly as the Political Director and currently as the Executive Director and Chief of Staff, Heimlich brings a strong conservative background to the leadership of the Washington State Republican Party.

“I want to thank the state committee for entrusting me with this important position during this crucial period in our state and nation,” said Caleb Heimlich, Chairman-Elect of the Washington State Republican Party.  Chairman Hutchison has done a great job leading our party. I am excited to build upon that momentum and flip Washington State by gaining majorities in the State House and the State Senate in 2018. The voters of Washington State are ready for innovative leadership and our party offers that,” Heimlich continued.
