The 48th District held their celebration meeting on the 18th at the Bellevue Community Center. There were more than 140 people in attendence for a meal provided by Twelve Baskets Catering. Everyone loved the food in the company of Republican friends. The 48th was the heart of the effort to re-elect Dave Reichert. Their efforts made a huge difference in the election and brought forward some super star leadership in our GOTV. One person in particular – Cecilia Jordan was one such outstanding volunteer. Throughout the election cycle, Cecilia’s enthusiasm influenced her fellow Republicans to come out to phone call at Victory Headquarters.
We dashed from the 48th District Meeting to the 1st/32nd/45th District. The 45th District worked their hearts out for an outstanding candidate – Toby Nixon, a true statesman. It was clear that supporting the candidate of the party was very important to those in attendance. Chairman candidates were asked various forms of the question of how we supported candidates in the last election and did we support and vote for our party’s nominee for President. That was easy for me – I was a McCain delegate to the Republican National Convention – I supported him and voted for him. If Republicans don’t stand by our nominated candidates for office WHO WILL? I was very disappointed to hear that the other candidates for Chairman did not support or vote for our nominee. I wonder why they are running for Chairman of the King County REPUBLICAN Party . . . .
