“Now more than
ever the people are

be ignorant, reckless and corrupt, it is because thepeople
tolerate ignorance, recklessness and corruption.” James
Garfield,“A Century of Congress” published in
Atlantic, July 1877
PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
A big
thank you to the brave souls who came out during tropical
storm Nicole to attend our fundraiser for Ellyn Bogdanoff.
We had a great time, raised some money for Ellyn and had a
delightful dinner at 5th Avenue Grill. We need to all get
together more often!
Wednesday the 6th of October we will have our monthly
meeting at Allen West's headquarters in Pompano. We are
meeting at 5:30 for a brief meeting and then will stay to
help out the campaign in any way we can. The campaign is
furnishing cold drinks and sandwiches. If you'd like,
bring a salad, a dessert or wine. We have new members
since we met last, so be sure and come out to meet them.
For
the rest of October, we will be doing phone banking every
Wednesday night at the Victory Office in Ft. Lauderdale. The
13th of October will be devoted to making calls for our very
own Celeste Ellich who is running for Commissioner in Wilton
Manors. Come out and help!
We
will skip a November meeting and have a holiday party in
December. Then, it's back tonormal meetings in January. We
have a very special project in mind for 2011 that you will
hear about shortly.
I know
you are all busy working for candidates. We have less than a
month left, and it will go quickly. There isn't a single
seat that we don't have the ability to win if we'd just get
out the vote. Call your friends and family and remind them
to vote! Offer to drive your neighbors to the polls! There
is a lot of apathy out there that we simply have to
overcome. Let's get to work!
Signed: Ginger Eisenrod, President

ABSENTEE BALLOT:
Remember that the easiest way to vote in Broward County is
touse an Absentee Ballot. Telephone the Elections Office
directly at (954) 357-7050.You can still request one until
the end of October but DO IT NOW!!!! They send youthe
ballot before the next election. You have to get it back to
them by a date certain. Instructions are with the ballot.
POLITICAL CONTRIBUTION$ ARE
VITAL THIS YEAR:
. We all complain that
lobbyists, political action committees and millionaires have
too much influence over our elected politicians. There are
250,000 registered Republican voters in Broward County. If
every one of us gave $10 to the Broward Republican party,
there would be a budget of $2,500,000 to recruit and help
elect qualified candidates. How much does it cost in
Starbucks or McDonalds for a modest treat? Ask yourself if
you can give $10 or $20 or more to help get qualified people
in office.
Please see the political
contribution form attached at the end of the newsletter.
REPUBLICAN NEWS;
