Here's a full factsheet from the Electoral Commission about the ins and outs of being a candidate at a General Election. The Electoral Services department at your local authority may also be able to point you in the right direction.\n\nAlso, if there's a political party out there you wouldn't mind standing for, then by all means join it and try and get yourself considered for selection. It's quite a big thing certainly, but if you work hard at it you could possibly do it.

If you look at the people running this country, they are part of the 3% of the wealthiest people. You never hear about someone who was making an average salary running for office, that's because it cost so much to run for political office. There you go.

Would  be tough; many states do not require you to register as a member of a party when you register to vote (both of the last two states I've lived in, Michigan and Indiana, do not register by party).

None of the above.  I think the most important thing the party provides is branding.  Belonging to one party or another denotes a certain belief structure that people identify with.....also, they (hopefully) vett candidates so that any party candidate that reaches the election is "electable."  Putting that into the above answers, the best fit would be "nominate candidates."

Weddings are way out of hand!  They can cost a normal person{not rich}  $25,000.00 .....  are you kidding me or what?   I want a party that will go on for a freaking month for that much money.  I think I'd rather have a nice ceremony, with a rockin' party and the cost would be only 3 or 4 thousand dollars.  It is a waste to spend so much.

I think it is a good idea if you are really involved and want to do it. I would suggest starting by doing a few parties for free, and then once you get some business, start charging. Good luck!

Yes, but you have to be a member of the Republican party...

Just be a good American, and which party you join will make no difference. It's like deciding between cherry or apple pie. They're both good, or both bad, depends on the lone of baloney you've heard.  Me ???  I'm non-partisan.

Although I am a liberal and a democrat, I want to help you to join the party of your choice, you have that right.\n\nBasically, you need to register to vote. At that time, you will be asked to state your party affiliation, which in your case happens to be Republican. Call your county registrar of voters. They will help you register and also help you get in contact with your local republican party representatives. \n\nGood luck and remember to pay attention to your local issues as well as national ones!\nA friend.

I don't think any, just file as a business through your secretary of states office, should only cost around $20. Then you have your business, and the rest is up to you.

If you are in the U.S., get in touch with your local senators and representatives (state and federal) and government leaders. If you give them a really big campaign donation, that is even better.

Contact the local Republican HQ ... they have this information.
