Richard Moore
Congratulations to Richard Moore, the new Vice-Chairman of the Cabarrus County GOP. Moore was unanimously chosen by the Executive Board Tuesday night to fill the vacated seat following the death of Larry Griffin.
Richard Moore is a lifetime resident of Cabarrus County and a long time activist within the Cabarrus County Republican Party and the Cabarrus Republican Men’s Club.
Prior to being elected to the Cabarrus County Executive Board nine years ago, Moore served as the CabarrusGOP.org WebMaster for several years.
On top of faithfully fulfilling his duties to the Cabarrus County Republican party, Richard has also represented the County Party as an At-Large member of the 8th District and the NC State Executive Committees, where he still serves to this day.
He is well known throughout the District for his efforts to promote the principles of the Republican Party, assisting other county organizations within the District and helping to elect good conservative Republicans to office. In 2010, he was recognized as one of the driving forces behind wresting control of both Houses of the NC General Assembly for the Republican Party for the first time over a century.
Moore served as the County Campaign Chairman or Coordinator for Congressman Robin Hayes during three campaigns and has served as County Campaign Coordinator, Treasurer, Consultant, or steadfast worker for many local, district and state candidates through the years.
During the course of more than a decade now, Richard has served as the County Convention Chairman, the County Convention Credentials Chairman, and the District Convention Credentials Chairman, as well as substituting for the Chairman on numerous occasions during general monthly meetings.
Richard is also an ordained minister and will soon be retiring from a long and distinguished career with IBM to spend more time serving our Lord and his fellow man.
As the new Vice-Chairman of the Cabarrus County GOP, Richard plans to work tirelessly within the local precincts to get more people involved within the local party. He also hopes to fulfill the mission of his recently departed dear friend Larry Griffin.
Griffin, a former U.S. Air Force career officer, served as Party Chairman and and most recently was re-elected as the County’s Vice-Chairman. Griffin was a mentor to local conservative activists including Richard Moore.
