The Montgomery County Republican Party elected two new members to their central committee Tuesday evening.

Fourteen of the 17 central committee members were present at Tuesday’s meeting. Both new members, Jim Shalleck and Scott Dyer were elected to fill the two vacant District 39 seats on the committee.

“I look for a history of leadership,” said Dan Willard in an interview with PolitickerMD.com. Willard serves as 1st vice chair of the MCRP central committee. “People follow passion.”

The two seats opened when one committee member moved out of state and another resigned.
