are organizations for Democratic and for Republican county
officials--National Democratic County Officials (NDCO) and the National
Conference of Republican County Officials (NCRCO). Both set up
tables and had receptions in conjunction with the meeting.

at the moment. President of NCRCO is Cindy R. Bobbitt, county
