About Our Party

Rooted in Marquette County.
Working for Every Community.

The Marquette County Republican Party has been the voice of conservative, common-sense governance in Michigan's Upper Peninsula for generations.

Whether you're a lifelong Republican, a first-time voter, or a community leader looking for a seat at the table, we're here to listen, organize, and act. Our county party is active year-round — not just during election season.
