NORFOLK, Neb. – A national political figure is coming to northeast Nebraska next month.

The Nebraska GOP is holding its State Central Committee event at Divots Conference Center in Norfolk Aug. 18-19, with former presidential advisor Kellyanne Conway serving as the event's guest.

Conway helmed the 2016 Trump-Pence presidential campaign, serving as a counselor to President Trump while he was in office.

She has toured on the public speaking circuit and made numerous television appearances.

The Norfolk event will also include several prominent figures on the state level and live entertainment by Midwest Dueling Pianos.

The event comes just over a year after the NE GOP held its annual conference in Kearney, during which several key members were ousted or resigned.
