Northampton Township District 13 COMMITTEEMAN/WOMAN (Two-Year Term)
Although unpaid, committee people serve as the first line of governance in our Republican Party. Our role goes far beyond working the polls on Election Day. We are responsible for getting out the vote by keeping our constituents fully informed about:
- Primary and General Election dates
- Republican candidates running in the Primary
- Which candidates advance to the General Election
The Bucks County Republican Committee (BCRC) asks committee people to distribute sample ballots featuring their endorsed candidates. While many of those candidates are good, we believe voters deserve to know about every qualified Republican on the ballot — not just the endorsed ones. As your committee people, we are committed to keeping you fully informed about all the choices. We respectfully ask for your vote.
Committeeman: Dan Berrien
Committeewoman: Laurie Katz Berrien

The job of the State Committee people:
In short, State Committee members are the elected representatives who make the big decisions that shape the Pennsylvania Republican Party — ideally putting grassroots voters first rather than career politicians.
They also set party rules and bylaws for their respective County. State Committee people advocate for County concerns at the State level, influence endorsements and strategy, and guide the overall direction of the party.
State Committee members play a critical role in shaping the future of the PA GOP.
There are 33 candidates running for State Committee. Most of them are running for re-election; however, one must question their desire to fulfill the duties noted above. Help to determine the leadership? The leadership that blamed “forces beyond our control” for the losses in November, 2025?! Those losses are to be laid squarely on the leadership.
WE NEED A CHANGE IN THE SLUGGISH LEADERSHIP AT THE BUCKS COUNTY REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE (BCRC)!

Court Case/Ruling that is of interest:
The Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court recently ruled that a lawsuit challenging the validity of the Bucks County Republican Committee (BCRC) bylaws must be heard in the Bucks County Court of Common Pleas.
The decision puts 54 years of BCRC bylaws — originally written in 1972 — and past leadership elections under scrutiny. For the past 14 years, BCRC has held biannual reorganization meetings to elect leadership. These meetings use voice votes presided over by Chairwoman Pat Poprik, who has presided over her own reelection.
Unlike Pennsylvania GOP state bylaws (which limit proxies to two per member), BCRC has allowed some members to carry 30–40 proxy votes — nearly all cast for the current chairwoman – with no visual inspection allowed upon request by opposing candidates.
A group of 50 precinct-level committee people filed the lawsuit after BCRC leadership refused to meet and update the outdated bylaws. Current State Committee members have not pushed for changes. The case will now proceed in the lower court.
