Brock Makes It Official
Posted on May 16, 2009 at 2:30 pmFollowing close behind Rep. Eric Swafford, TNGOP state committeeman and Treasurer Oscar Brock has also announced his intention to seek the soon-to-be vacated post of TNGOP chairman. Joe Lance breaks the news:
Pledging to the members of the State Executive Committee a determination to carry forward and expand the winning policies of 2008, Brock begins his bid with commitments from more than 25 of the 34 votes required to win election as chairman. “Over the past two years, our party has defied the national trend by staying true to our conservative principles,” Brock said. “I intend to carry our party’s winning message to every corner of Tennessee with a pledge to build on the victories of 2008.”
Brock was elected Treasurer of the Tennessee Republican Party in December of 2008. He has served as the State Executive Committeeman for the 10th State Senatorial District since 2002. In announcing his candidacy, Brock noted, “As an elected member and officer of the Committee, I am best suited to direct the resources of the Tennessee Republican Party to achieve our goals: growing our legislative majorities and returning the office of the Governor to Republican control.”
The son of former United States Senator Bill Brock, Oscar Brock has served at all levels of the Republican Party, helping turn the Hamilton County GOP into one of the premier county party organizations in the state. Brock graduated from Stanford University in 1986 with a bachelor’s degree in economics in 1986 and earned his masters in business administration at Vanderbilt University 1996. He has built a successful commercial real estate business in the Chattanooga area. Brock and his wife Meg have been married eighteen years and have two children.
