Why "Neutral" cards exist
Primary Neutrality Has Ended.
Article III, Section C of the BCRC Bylaws prohibited the Central Committee from endorsing, supporting, or opposing any candidate for public office before the primary, unless that candidate was unopposed. That neutrality guaranteed a fair shake for every Republican in a contested primary, and it expired when the primary closed on June 30, 2026. With our nominees now set, BCRC endorses the Republican on the ballot in each race, except any still awaiting a certified result.
