If you are a smart phone user, finding your caucus site just got a little easier. Iowa GOP has launched aapplications through the Android Market and iTunes. Be prepared for the caucuses by having the Iowa GOP in the palm of your hand! The app is helpful for caucus site coordinators and for those volunteering at caucus sites who may need to direct people to a different caucus site.

To download the app, search for IowaGOP2012 in the Android Market or iTunes. The application’s search results may not be very complete at this point, but as sites are confirmed and the database is updated, this will become an invaluable tool.

Below is a preview of what the app has to offer.

The Republican Party of Iowa is hittin’ the road! 

The staff of the Republican Party of Iowa is heading all over the state – to 15 different cities – in order to talk with you about the Republican Party as the 2012 elections roll around.  We have printed off  new and improved county manuals called The Grassroots Guide to the Republican Party of Iowa, and we will be handing out free copies to Executive Committee members and grassroots activists. 

The meeting will be short and sweet and food will be available.  We have done a lot to update the infrastructure of the Party, so please come see us so you can hear about what’s new and improved!
