Downer, who was the only candidate without a website, said he mainly campaigned door-to-door, talking to the registered members of the club. “Nothing replaces face-to-face interaction,” he said.
Downer said in his campaign that as president, he would “reach out to freshmen in a different way to build a vibrant community for Republicans,” recruiting and creating a freshmen caucus.
He said he will make the HRC “user-friendly” in order to retain the membership, revitalizing the committee structure to get members more involved.
And he said he looks forward to his term as president.
“We’re going to have a great year, and I’m excited about it,” Downer said.
