Tomorrow's the day to GET OUT THE VOTE!!

Well tomorrow is the day of truth. The day we find out whether or country, state, and county will be headed in the right direction or taken on the path none of us want to see.


For all the latest on the election and what is going on in Milam County keep track with this blog. I will be posting on the road today and tomorrow with important updates, pictures, and results.

If you haven't done it yet VOTE!! If you need to, take a friend, family member, or neighbor and tell them to VOTE STRAIGHT TICKET GOP!!

1 Click and You're DONE!!

Early Voting ended Friday with a record number 4752 Milam County Voters hitting the polls early. That means that to date, 34% of Milam County’s registered voters have already voted….HAVE YOU?

Don’t let the wrong people get elected here in Milam County because you didn’t vote. Last election we had a Republican win office in Milam County winning by 21 votes and in this year’s primary we had one candidate win by 25 votes. So if 30 people in either of those elections had decided not to cast a vote.

EVERY VOTE COUNTS!!

I will be posting as often as I can in the next few days so stay tuned and share the blog so others can be informed. We need to GET OUT THE VOTE!!

Thanks!!
Bill

Quick Milam GOP Update!!

Hello Everyone,

Hope everyone is getting for a little national convention action. We’ll keep those in the path of Isaac in our prayers, but we have a convention to complete in Tampa that will select the next President of the United States.

First I wanted to thank all those who helped out Donna Orsag. With your help she was able to get lots of new signs. If you haven’t seen them or know somewhere to put one up let me know.

Remember, we have seven local candidates in contested races this November so we need help getting the word out and putting out signs so if you need one let me know. We have signs for the following.

Judge John Youngblood – District Court Judge

Bill Torrey – County/District Attorney
Donna Orsag – County Treasurer
Kolette Morgan – County Tax Assessor
George Tomek – County Commissioner, Precinct 1
John Fisher – County Commissioner, Precinct 3
Fred Keefer – Constable, Precinct 4

As the convention is becoming more and more prominent on the news I have been getting several phone calls about signs and hours of operation for the Party office. We are ordering signs this week and should be able to pick them up so we can start getting them out ASAP. We are also going to be buying some bumper stickers also. If you would like some let me know and we will make sure you get what you need to show your support.

The Milam GOP Executive Committee will be having a meeting next week to determine the hours of operation for the party headquarters and then I will put them out on Party website, via email, on Facebook and in the newspaper. Remember, if you haven’t checked out the Facebook site then please go to it and like it. We have lots of good info there also.

If you have any questions or concerns please give me a shout and I will be glad to help you out.

Thanks,

Bill
