Ridgefield Republicans Seek Candidates to Fill Board of Selectpersons
Republican Candidates Needed
The Ridgefield Republican Town Committee (RTC) is seeking candidates to fill the vacant seat on the Board of Selectpersons. Chris Murray has submitted his letter of resignation from the Board effective on June 1st. The RTC appreciates his service and wishes the Murray family happiness in all of their future endeavors.
Per the Ridgefield Town Charter, elective boards such as the Board of Selectperson fill a vacancy with a person who is a member of the same political party as the party on whose row the vacating board member was elected. Mr. Murray’s vacated seat is to be filled by a Republican. The person appointed to the vacancy would fill the remaining term of that board seat, until November 2027.
The RTC requests that any registered Ridgefield Republican, who may be interested in filling this seat, send a letter of interest as well as a resume or biography to info@ridgefieldrtc.org, by 5:00PM on Friday, June 6, 2025. An RTC subcommittee may interview potential candidates and the RTC may send an endorsement to the Board of Selectpersons for its consideration.
The Board of Selectpersons, separate from the RTC’s process, will conduct its own selection process for filling the vacancy.
