Riverside County, CA – On January 23, 2025, the Republican Party of Riverside County (RPRC) elected Hon. Lori Stone as Chairwoman to lead the RPRC.

With president Trump’s strong performance in Riverside County, outperforming expectations and flipping a county where Democrats out register Republicans by nearly 100,000 voters, Chairwoman Stone intends to use that momentum to unify and expand our Republican efforts. 

The RPRC’s primary goal is to bring back Riverside County by inspiring Republican Party involvement, increase registration, build a bench of Republican candidates, and raise the necessary funds to help them get elected.

“I am honored to serve the Republican Party during this historic time. Inflation and crime are at an all time high, and under California’s one-Party Democrat rule, we are seeing the complete breakdown of big government management. With the help of the Party of common sense, we will return Riverside County to red and take back our county, and our state,” said Chairwoman Stone.

In addition to electing a Chairwoman, the Republican Party Central Committee members also elected an executive board from across the county to include Michael Curry of La Quinta as Vice-Chairman, Samantha Sobarzo of Riverside as Secretary, and Hemet Treasurer Dale Dieleman as Treasurer. Joseph Scarafone of Hemet and Murrieta Mayor Pro-Tem Jon Levell were both appointed as the Committee’s Parliamentarian and Sergeant at Arms respectively.

In order to achieve RPRC’s ambitious goals, this new executive board leadership is committed to hitting the ground running for the voters of Riverside County by promoting and adhering to the Republican principles of:

• Constitutionally protected individual freedoms and liberty
  • Common sense “good” governance
  • Local control
  • Addressing our skyrocketing cost of living
  • Public safety and the rule of law
