@mystery-ak @Cyber LibertyIt is not good for a candidate not to be at a meeting of the National Committee. Personal interaction with the members of the Committee is valuable. Not going there tends to say to the members they are not important to the candidate. Here is a description of their work and how they are selected. (Tip to Democrat candidates: Don't tick off these members.)
"
The Democratic National Committee (DNC) is the principal governing organization of the Democratic Party of the United States.
The DNC is responsible for overseeing the process of writing and promoting the party platform every four years and providing national leadership surrounding campaign, fundraising, political activity, and election strategy.
The DNC is made up of the chairs and vice chairs of each state Democratic Party and more than 200 elected members from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the territories."
Now, let's look at the
Republican National Committee, what they do, how they are selected.
(Tip to Republican candidates: Don't tick off these members.)
"Republican National Committee (RNC), American political organization that oversees the activities of the Republican Party, including organizing the party’s national convention, developing its political platform, coordinating campaign strategies, and fundraising.
The members of the Republican National Committee shall consist of one (1) national committeeman and one (1) national committeewoman from, and the chairman of the state Republican Party of, each state.
For the purposes of this rule and all other rules, "state" or "states" shall be taken to include American Samoa, the District of Columbia, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands, except in Rule No. 14, and unless the context in which the word "state" or "states" is used clearly makes such inclusion inappropriate."
