Welcome

Dear Fellow Craven County Republicans,

It is an honor to introduce myself as the new Chairman of the Craven County Republican Party. My name is Brandon Spiece, and like you, I am deeply committed to preserving our conservative values and ensuring a bright future for our community. 

As Chairman of the Craven County Republican Party, my vision is to widen and deepen the footprint of the Republican party in Craven County. Our goals include increasing Republican voter registration and encouraging greater participation in party initiatives. By fostering active engagement, we aim to uphold and promote the conservative values that are fundamental to our party's mission.

Craven County is a stronghold of Republican principles, but we cannot afford to be complacent. To secure future victories, we must expand our outreach, engage more of our neighbors, and strengthen our party from the ground up. That’s where you come in.

GET INVOLVED WITH THE CRAVEN COUNTY GOP

The Craven County Republican Party is growing stronger every day…and we want you to be part of it.

Whether you’re a lifelong conservative, a recent arrival in Craven County, or an unaffiliated voter who shares our values, there’s a place for you in the local Republican movement. We are building a strong, energized, and principled party that stands for personal liberty, limited government, fiscal responsibility, rule of law, equal opportunity, law and order, and traditional family values.

Our headquarters at 939 US Hwy 70 E in New Bern is more than just an office…it’s a hub for political engagement and grassroots action.

We are here to help you get informed, get involved, and make a difference.

THE CENTURY CLUB

The Craven County Century Club is a critical pillar of our fundraising and grassroots success. Individual members pay $30 per month, and married couples pay $50 per month to pay the monthly bills at our permanent office and for the day-to-day operation. This enables all money raised through fundraisers to go towards getting Republicans elected up and down the ballot. We prefer our members to sign up for bank draft, but you can pay annually. You can sign up online through the link under the Century Club Tab on our website. 

Whether you're a political veteran or new to the movement, the Century Club is a great way to strengthen the party and invest in our future.

PRECINCT ORGANIZATION: THE FOUNDATION OF OUR PARTY

Our county is divided into 21 voting precincts, and each one is key to reaching voters, spreading our message, and turning out the vote. Organized precincts are the frontline of political influence, and we’re working hard to strengthen every one of them.

Check the Precinct Calendar Tab on our website to find information about future Precinct meetings. 

If your precinct is unorganized, this is your chance to help change that. We’re actively looking for leaders and volunteers in Cove City, Jasper, Harlowe, Dover, River Bend, and Grantham 1A.

Precinct involvement is the most direct and effective way to shape the future of the Republican Party…starting in your own neighborhood.

I’m often asked, “Why is it so important to attend precinct meetings?” There are many good reasons, but the one that resonates most is this: when precincts are strong, the elected representatives whom we trusted with our votes on Election Day are more likely to return and engage with the very people who helped elect them. They give an account of their actions, answer questions, and hear directly from the grassroots. In short, strong precincts and a strong county party help hold our government accountable. There is no greater demonstration of “We the People” than active, informed participation at the precinct level.
