Both Bob and Ulla have been tremendous supporters of the RPK for many years, and haven't been able to attend many activities due to illness.

National Committeewoman's Report 2018 RNC Spring Meeting in Miami, Florida National Committeewoman, Miriam Hellreich May 7, 2018 Dear Fellow Republicans, I have just returned from the Spring Meeting of the RNC held in Miami, Florida. It was a most productive and encouraging meeting as our Republican Political Capital is increasing both financially and politically. Despite the naysayers and the political pundits, our National Republican Party and our Republican Presidency are ALIVE and WELL! GUEST SPEAKERS Page 3 Kauai GOP News — May 2018 Special speakers: Steve Moore Economist at Heritage Foundation and a Senior Economic Advisor for President Trump. Other speakers were: Senator Marco Rubio, who spoke in firm support of President Trump’s policies, Donald Trump Jr., Charlie Kirk, Director of Turning Point USA, a national student movement dedicated to identifying, organizing and empowering young people to promote the principles of free markets and limited government. The articulate Candace Owens, the new Communications Director for Turning Point USA, is a young African American, journalist, super star who speaks on behalf of the Republican cause. She admonishes her fellow African Americans to be “victors” not “victims”. Her twitter posting drew 80 million views when she responded to Kanye West who said he liked the way she thinks. Candace says she wants to “lead a black revolution against the Democrat Party and remove the left’s strangle hold on black culture.” Senator Marco Rubio Donald Trump, Jr., Candace Owens, Miriam Hellreich & Charlie Kirk IT'S THE ECONOMY STUPID! There is no denying the FACTS that President Trump and Vice President Pence are leading our country into a more prosperous future. It’s not just the 3.9 % unemployment rate that is worth celebrating. The growth rate of the economy over the last four quarters was just under 3%, a level that almost all liberal economists said was impossible to achieve and yet with Donald Trump after one year in office, here we are. In just more than one year in the White House, he has achieved a growth rate that is higher than Obama was able to achieve in eight years. The Labor market is booming Our nation has over 2.7 million new jobs African American and Hispanic unemployment rates are at all time lows The TAX CUTS are working – 8 in 10 Americans are seeing more money in their paychecks More than 4 million workers (including local companies in Hawaii) like Walmart, COSTCO and our major banking institutions, are receiving wage increases and bonuses which puts more money in the pockets of our citizens. The RNC has created a new website Page 4 Kauai GOP News — May 2018 – PaycheckPresident.com to post videos from Americans across the country to share how the Trump Tax cuts have helped their families. We encourage our Hawaii residents to visit this site and share your story. Steve Moore, Fox Contributor, Economist from the Heritage Foundation and a Chief Economic Advisor said, “if our current economic numbers are in place a year from now, President Trump with certainly win re-election." AMERICA'S POSITION IN THE WORLD Few people could have imagined that in the course of 15 months in office that President Trump would be announcing TALKS WITH NORTH KOREA following his commitment to work with China and others to decrease aid to North Korea. He has been steadfast in his commitment that until North Korea agrees to stop their current development of a nuclear program and to dismantle what is currently in place, they will suffer the economic consequences. Unlike previous administrations, President Trump will insist on verifiable inspections to make certain the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula is complete. What a difference a Republican President can make! It was a surreal experience to watch the TV coverage of Kim Jung Un crossing the DMZ to shake hands with South Korean President Moon. Another major campaign promise that President Trump has kept, was his decision to support Jerusalem as the official Capitol of Israel. In recent years, all Presidential candidates have said, during their campaigns, that they supported Jerusalem as the Capitol City. But when they were elected, none kept that promise, fearing the repercussions it would have on relations with Syria and other Middle East countries. Israeli President Netanyahu made it clear in his response to President Trump’s announcement, “there can be no peace without Jerusalem as the capitol” and Israel is forever grateful to President Trump for keeping this promise that is so vital to the Jewish people. RNC IS READY TO DEFY HISTORY RNC Chairman Ronna Romney McDaniel announced that we have raised $171 million during this cycle to date, putting us far ahead of the DNC. Those funds are being invested in digital and data programs which proved to be winning strategies during the 2016 campaign. The RNC has made hundreds of millions of survey calls that have modeled nearly 90 billion voter predictions to better understand and engage the electorate. We know that the challenges we face are tough, but the RNC is more passionate and committed than ever, this is why we have already won 5 out of 6 House special elections this past year. The mainstream media said it could not be done. Victory in 2018 is possible because we have the best team in place. The ground game for knocking on doors, making phone calls and registering voters will be more robust than ever before. Republicans may win a number of Governor’s seats in unlikely states like Oregon. Arizona is a state to watch for major congressional and gubernatorial wins. They just won one of the 5 congressional seats taken by Republicans. The RNC is investing a quarter of a billion dollars in Midterm election strategies to defend our majorities in congress.

  • The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network
    PLATFORMS AND OUTSIDERS IN PARTY NETWORKS: THE EVOLUTION OF THE DIGITAL POLITICAL ADVERTISING NETWORK Bridget Barrett A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts at the Hussman School of Journalism and Media. Chapel Hill 2020 Approved by: Daniel Kreiss Adam Saffer Adam Sheingate © 2020 Bridget Barrett ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Bridget Barrett: Platforms and Outsiders in Party Networks: The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network (Under the direction of Daniel Kreiss) Scholars seldom examine the companies that campaigns hire to run digital advertising. This thesis presents the first network analysis of relationships between federal political committees (n = 2,077) and the companies they hired for electoral digital political advertising services (n = 1,034) across 13 years (2003–2016) and three election cycles (2008, 2012, and 2016). The network expanded from 333 nodes in 2008 to 2,202 nodes in 2016. In 2012 and 2016, Facebook and Google had the highest normalized betweenness centrality (.34 and .27 in 2012 and .55 and .24 in 2016 respectively). Given their positions in the network, Facebook and Google should be considered consequential members of party networks. Of advertising agencies hired in the 2016 electoral cycle, 23% had no declared political specialization and were hired disproportionately by non-incumbents. The thesis argues their motivations may not be as well-aligned with party goals as those of established political professionals. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES AND FIGURES ....................................................................................................................

The company has given at least $2.4 million to state-level political candidates and party committees since the 2000 election cycle, spreading its contributions across the country but focusing the bulk of its giving in its home state of California. Eighteen of the top 20 recipients of ChevronTexaco funds since 2000 are California candidates and party committees. ChevronTexaco announced in early April that it would acquire Unocal, a California-based company that has operations in Asia, Europe, South America and the United States. Its $16.4 billion purchase will expand its global holdings, including five oil refineries in the United States — two in California and one each in Mississippi, Hawaii and Utah. ChevronTexaco also produces oil and gas in California and the Gulf of Mexico and markets industrial chemicals under the name Chevron Phillips Chemical Co.1 Over more than a decade, ChevronTexaco and its predecessor, Chevron, have given at least $3.9 million to state-level politics, according to Institute on Money in State Politics databases.
