Scope and Content of Collection
The Republican Party of California records include minutes and transcripts of meetings, correspondence, memoranda, financial
and legal records, polling data, printed matter, clippings, photographs, and sound recordings related to elections and Republican
Party activities in California.
The bulk of the material can be found in
Chronological File I (1980s- 1990s) and
Chronological File II (1990s-2000s). These materials were grouped based on an original filing system of the California Republican Party (CRP). The files include
pleadings, discovery, exhibits, and other documents relating to litigation involving the CRP. Many of the cases documented
in these files relate to campaign financing as regulated by the Fair Political Practices Commission of California (FPPC) and
the Federal Election Commission (FEC), voter rights, and election regulations. In addition, these chronological files include
extensive reports on campaign funding, as well as legal clearance requests.
The collection also includes the files of
Shawn Steel, who was chairman of the CRP from 2001 to 2003.
