October 2011 Milam GOP Update

Hello Everyone,

Just wanted to touch base with you all and let you know where things stand right now and to let everyone know about some up-coming events in the next few weeks. It’s an exciting time with the filing period for the 2012 primary only a little over a month away – get Ready!!

With all the excitement of the national campaign for president, we have begun to generate quite a bit of enthusiasm here in Milam County. Currently we have 12 GOP candidates for 9 of the 11 races on the local 2012 ballot. The two slots that are still open are looking like they could be filled pretty soon though so we are anxiously awaiting the filing period to begin to solidify those positions.

Anyway you look at it, we have moved quite far down the road from the days when we were lucky to have one or two candidates on the local Milam County GOP Ticket, thanks to everyone for their support in that effort!

The month of October also sees us with a couple of events that might provide you the opportunity to continue your involvement, or begin to get involved. Either way, we would welcome your participation and look forward to seeing you.

October 10th the Milam County Tea Party conservatives will be holding their monthly meeting at the Budget Host Suite & Inn located in Cameron just off Hwy 36. The meeting will begin at 6:00 p.m. and along with the usual business they will be looking into the 2011 Constitutional Amendment Election and will also have a candidate, or three or four, on hand for you to meet and talk to.

October 18th the Republican Women of Milam County will be holding their monthly meeting at 6:30 at the Budget Host Inn & Suites in Cameron. This will be their normally scheduled meeting and they will be discussing the up-coming Constitutional Amendment Election and will hopefully have some special guests also. Remember, there are male memberships to this organization also and many men to come and participate.

Both of these meetings are an excellent opportunity to meet fellow conservatives and begin to get involved or stay involved. I welcome you all to both of these meetings and hope to see you all there.

Great things are happening in Milam County and we are looking forward to the 2012 election but we need your help. We invite you to come out, get involved, and be a part of the Party!!

See You Soon,
Bill
