THE PLATFORM OF THE LANCASTER COUNTY REPUBLICAN PARTY
The Lancaster County Republican Party believes in the principles of freedom and democracy that have made the United States of America a light for goodness in the world.

- We believe in a duly-certified electorate that is well informed, actively engaged in the voting process, and most of all represent the Republican platform through respectful and measured discourse.
Accordingly, we adopt the following Platform Standards:
