On Tuesday, Reince Preibus, the chairman of the Republican National Committee, said that the party should always be reaching out to minority communities.

In a meeting of Republicans in Cobb County, Georgia, Preibus said that party workers will continue to go to minority areas around the U.S. even after the 2014 midterm elections end, The Associated Press reports.

"We need to be a year-round party," he said. "We need to be a party that is engaged full time in black, Hispanic and Asian communities. Not just once in a while, but all the time."

The RNC has already reached out to minorities in various ways, including voter registration campaigns and community meetings. In addition, the Republican State Leadership Committee has been seeking potential Hispanic, black and female candidates for state-level offices. The Koch brothers' Libre Initiative has also been reaching out to the Hispanic community through programs that help members learn English, graduate high school, schedule medical exams and more, all while promoting conservative ideas.

"We are doing the things that I think, unfortunately, for four years the Democrats have been doing full time across this country," Priebus said.

In Georgia, "every statewide elected official" is a Republican, AP reports. This year, however, the Democratic Party sees hope in the increasing number of both minority voters and out-of-state voters.  Securing republican votes this time around is especially essential as the Republicans hope to be the Senate majority during the last years of Barack Obama's presidency.

Cobb County is predominantly white at 62 percent, but the minority population is growing with 25 percent black residents and 12 percent Hispanic or Latino residents, a 2010 census cited by AP reports.

Leo Smith, overseer of GOP minority outreach in Georgia, has been reaching out to minorities in the state for the last year.

"What we are finding out as we are engaging with minorities is that on some of the fiscal issues, it's almost a no-brainer," he explained. "People understand that debt is not good, that if America has a sinking boat because of the debt then nobody is going to be able to cross the river to opportunity."

House Minority Leader Stacey Abrams, a black Democrat, believes that minorities should interact with both the Democratic and Republican Party, but the latter's stance on minimum wage and Health care does not reflect minority views.

"The distance between Republican ideology and Republican legislation is a gulf that too many people of color fall into, and we're not going to believe your dream of achievement if you are going to do nothing to make that dream a reality," she said.
