Controlling Committees

Executive Committee

The LPO Executive Committee sets the course for the party, along with the appointed Division Directors who also handle the day to day operations. Together, they will also establish a budget for the party. The members of the LPO Executive Committee are elected by the LPO Central Committee.

Central Committee

The Central Committee consists of two (2) members from each Congressional District. Four (4) of the members are elected as the Central Committee officers (Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary and Treasurer).  The Central Committee is similar to a corporation’s board of directors and elects the Executive Committee (Officers in the corporate world) who are responsible for day to day operations of the Party.

Organizationally, the Central (or Controlling) Committee is a requirement of any Political Party.  It’s organization is codified and available to the public in the LPO Constitution and Bylaws as well as the Ohio Revised Code (3517.02, 3517.03, 3517.04 and 3517.05).
