check out the new revision to the RNC wikipedia entry


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republican_National_Committee


he 1856 Republican National Convention appointed the first RNC. It consisted of one member from each State and Territory to serve for four years. Each National Convention since then has followed that precedent. From 1924 to 1952 there was a National Committeeman and National Committeewoman from each State, Washington, DC and U.S. possessions. In 1952, Committee membership was expanded to include the State Chairman of States which: (1) voted Republican in the preceding presidential election, (2) has a Republican majority in its combined Representatives and Senators, or (3) has a Republican governor. By 1968, membership reached 145.

Its counterparts include the Democratic National Committee, the <[Libertarian National Committee>], and the Green National Committee.

The RNC is well known for its corruption which includes bribing public officials, fixing elections, and voter fraud. These criminal acts are ongoing, and have gotten worse under the Bush administration.

1. You can't fault it for accuracy.
It could use some sources and citations, but otherwise it looks spot on.

4. It's already gone...
And, really, without any citation, I'd have removed it myself. Leave partisan politics out of the wikipedia, why don't ya? Would you expect to see a line like the one you wrote in the Encyclopedia Britannica?
