Anderson County Republican Executive Committee
Myra Mansfield

Myra feels honored to serve as the chairwoman during such a difficult time in our country. In 2022 she led the party in a grassroots effort to bring major change to local government when Anderson GOP had the largest-ever slate of Republican candidates by expanding the ballot an additional 20 partisan seats! The party has grown in participation and had to move monthly meetings to a larger, more central location in the county. She rebranded the organization, developed a new website, organized new committees, and created a popular Vote Republican campaign. Prior to being elected as Chairwoman Myra served as the vice chair for two years before serving as treasurer for four years. She was reelected for a second two-year term.
