CHRIS DANIEL: Youngest Elected Official in attendance to the 2008 Republican National Convention



Back in June of 2004, Chris Daniel became the youngest delegate from Texas to attend the Republican National Convention in New York. Then only 22 and a senior at the University of Texas, Chris Daniel wowed the nation as one of the most dynamic and magnanimous delegates at the RNC.


Now June 2008, Chris Daniel has once again been elected to be part of the Texas delegation to this year’s RNC in Minneapolis, Minn. This time, Chris is the youngest ELECTED official in attendance.


After serving as the youngest delegate from Texas to the RNC in 2004, Chris Daniel continued to become involved in the Republican Party: block-walking for dozens of candidates, organizing clubs, giving countless speeches for Conservative groups like the FairTax, and becoming a local precinct chair.


During the November Election in 2006, Chris Daniel unseated the Board Chair of Lone Star College to become the youngest currently elected official in the entire state of Texas, winning by over 40,000 votes in a bottom-ballot race. Lone Star College is effectively the 2nd largest community college system in Texas, with 6 campuses and 7 satellites, 50,000 students, 180 million under budget, and a 1,400 sq mile service area encompassing five counties. Chris Daniel serves a 6 year term on the nine member board.


Chris Daniel was elected 1st alternate delegate from the 7th Congressional District of Houston, Texas, during the Texas State Convention.
