Constitutional Conservative Drops Out; Endorses Chuck Purgason
Posted by Jedidiah Smith in Chuck Purgason, Elections on May 18, 2010
This was released last night from the Chuck Purgason campaign:
Sen. Chuck Purgason received the endorsement of Jim Schmidt, a constitutional conservative who was running for the Republican nomination in the U.S. Senate Primary until he announced his withdrawal today. “Jim Schmidt’s endorsement underscores the importance of rallying the grassroots around the best candidate to take on the establishment’s anointed one,” said Sen. Chuck Purgason. Mr. Schmidt urged the public “to vote for Chuck Purgason in the August 3rd Republican Primary Election.” “We need to send someone to Washington D.C. who has the courage to stop the federal government spending spree that is escalating the federal debt and threatening our nation’s economic stability. We need to send someone to Washington D.C. who is not entrenched in the corruption and abuse of an expanding federal state. Most importantly, we need to send someone to Washington D.C. who understands and can represent the interests of our great state,” said Jim Schmidt in his press release.
“I would like to thank Jim for his great endorsement and the confidence that he has in me. Jim and I share the same concerns about the direction our country in heading. Unless we return our nation to the conservative value of balanced budgets, and end government’s runaway spending, our children and grandchildren will pay the price,” said Sen. Purgason.
Schmidt’s endorsement adds to the momentum for Purgason’s campaign. Last week, Purgason won an online poll from the Missouri Sovereignty Project. The poll asked people to choose between Chuck Purgason and Roy Blunt. Purgason won the poll 75% to 25%.
“Carnahan and Blunt represent more of Washington D.C. business as usual,” said Sen. Chuck Purgason. “They both have years of experience in D.C. Both of their campaigns are being funded by out of state special interests. The mood of the country is quickly changing. The recent losses of a Republican Senator in his Utah primary and a Democrat House member in his West Virginia primary are proof that Americans are fed up with Washington D.C. big government policies.”
Franklin County Patriots Strategy Meeting Tonight
Posted by Jedidiah Smith in Activism, Elections on May 18, 2010
There will be a Franklin County Patriots’ Strategy Meeting tonight, May 18, in Union. We will begin at 7:00pm at the Franklin County Baptist Association Gymnasium. The building is located at 785 Butterfield Dr., South Hwy 47 in Union. We have several items to discuss, but our primary goal will be to strategize about the upcoming elections. We all understand how vital it is that we all be as informed as possible as we head into the election season.
Agenda items will include voter registration drives, phone banking, Get Out the Vote campaigns and planning for upcoming Franklin County Events. Our input and involvement are now more needed than ever. The freedoms we enjoy are under assault as never before. We know how critical the vote in November is, but if the most conservative candidates do not win in the August primary, we may not be enthused about our choices in November. We have less than 100 days until the November 3 primary.
This will also be a great recruitment opportunity. If you know of someone who is interested in learning more about Franklin County Patriots, invite them or bring them to this event. E-mail your lists and notify your friends.
Candidates will not be speaking at this meeting, but we will be giving an opportunity for individuals who are currently working on campaigns to briefly (very briefly) discuss those campaigns.
