RPA STAFF
RPA CHAIRMAN/RNC GENERAL COUNSEL DOYLE WEBB |
Chairman Webb was re-elected on December 1, 2018, to serve a sixth term as Chairman of the RPA after leading it to historic victories across the state, gaining seats in the state house and state senate and solidifying a majority stance in both; sweeping all seven constitutional offices including governor and lieutenant governor; and rounding out an all-Republican federal delegation from Arkansas to the U.S. House and Senate. For the first time in 140 years, Republicans are the majority party of Arkansas.
Doyle has served as the RPA Chairman for nine years -- the longest tenure in the state party's history, and the most senior serving Chairman among all 50 states, with the benefit of that continuity evident in the party's current unprecedented strength. He is also the second most senior chairman within the Republican National Committee. Of note, Doyle serves as the General Counsel to the Republican National Committee in conjunction with his state chairman responsibilities. Chairman Webb is the first Arkansan to serve as an officer of the RNC. |
