Our Basic Political Operating Unit (BPOU) is called House District 58B Republican Party of Minnesota. We are a collection of precincts that serve to organize political activities at local levels and state levels.
Do you want to have your voice heard? Getting involved in our local BPOU is one way to do so. You can voice who you want to serve on the Executive Committee in your voting district, but you can also voice who you want to serve on the State Central Committee for the overall Republican Party of Minnesota.
We'd love to see you at our BPOU meetings on the first Tuesday of every month at 6:30pm, commonly at the Farmington Library. Reach out to us on Facebook or in email to learn more.
