For the 2016 election cycle, Bergeron was appointed to the Republican National Committee’s Debate Committee, which decided when, where, and on what networks the Republican presidential debates would take place.[8] Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus described the committee as being "responsible for implementing the new GOP debate policies in the 2016 presidential election."[8]

New Hampshire delegates were bound on all ballots. Delegates were to be released and unbound if a candidate "withdraws" from the race.
