TOPPER Endorsements require sixty percent super-majority votes.

In contests where we don't endorse we are neutral; we allow competing candidates to place signs and literature at our headquarters.

In contests where we do endorse the organization assists the endorsed candidate and does not assist the non-endorsed competitors. Our
assistance includes financial and non-financial support, the most important part of which is our precinct captains speaking directly to voters.
During the recent primary we provided our wholehearted support to the endorsed candidates listed below, especially Gary Skoien, our founder and chairman. Unfortunately, Gary lost by about a hundred votes. We are disappointed but find solice in the other wins.

Welcome to our Web Site...

We offer an informative, casual breakfast meeting on the third Saturday of each month. Guest speakers each month present politically important issues of our day with an opportunity for Q & A. We welcome new attendees. Please invite your neighbors and friends to join us. This is a great opportunity to become informed on the issues and to be prepared before casting your vote in the next election.

TOPPER History . . .

TOPPER started as a breakfast club to help unite active members of the Republican Party in Palatine with each other and elected officials in our party and has continued in that role from inception . Between 2002 and 2010 while Gary Skoien was Republican Committeeman for Palatine Township, TOPPER also handled formalities like recruiting election judges. With the recent change in committeeman, TOPPER no long answers to the name "Regular Republican Organization of Palatine Township".

TOPPER has united Republicans within not only the Village of Palatine and unincorporated areas of Palatine Township (which share our name) but also within the Palatine Township portions of Barrington, Inverness, Hoffman Estates, and Rolling Meadows.  Related organizations include the Palatine Young Republicans and the Republican Women’s Organization. You will often hear these organizations referred to as the Palatine GOP, the Rolling Meadows GOP, or the Inverness GOP. The Rolling Meadows Young Republicans and the Inverness Young Republicans are part of the Palatine Young Republicans. This group is seeking like-minded individuals under the age of 40. For more information, on any of our activities or these related groups, call TOPPER headquarters at 847-359-5212.
