Thank you for another on target article. And for your references to me. I'm sure it was an oversight but I, too, am running for REC Chair in Pinellas County. Our election is on 12/12 and I could use all the help I can get. My slate includes Chris Rossi for Vice Chair and Lisa Repetto for Secretary, all of us AFs. If we can pull this off, after being hamstrung by current Board not allowing us a member list with phone and email info for campaigning on equal footing, it'll be a miracle and a real boon for Tampa Bay.
Yes I most certainly do. It was extremely rude and unwelcoming. Looking back on it, perhaps I was just a tool they could use to say, "see? We are America Firsters too." 🤷
No they were trying to stop America Firsters that night. With that they couldn't look silly with their hand made signs of not being able to take things into the meeting.
Should keep an eye on the Palm Beach County REC as well. 3 new candidates want the REC Chairman position. This Wednesday meeting is guaranteed to be a barn burner. Many say that if Barnett remains they are out for a variety of issues. None the least of which is how he "runs" the meetings, suppresses petitions. belittles members on multiple ocassions and more.
Steve Vernon thinks anyone who wants to push for the Republican platform and values is a far right extremist. I hope people see the truth and vote for what he refers to a far right extremists, who I call America first Patriots.😊
Gary - Volusia is what got FNR started on the road of RINO REC Chairs. Your county is dear to our hearts. We are hoping for a win to take back Volusia- getting those clubs chartered again and rocking the Florida RPOF boat by dragging the Party back to the REPUBLICAN PARTY PLATFORM!
Just in case you wanted to know what the local RINOs in office think regarding America First candidates taking Lee County:
“The results divided local political figures. State Rep. Spencer Roach, a North Fort Myers Republican, called the takeover “a dark day for the future of the Lee GOP.”
Thank you for your mention of our big win in Hillsborough County. My name is Dana Galen and I am the new chair. Yes, the vote count wasn't even close! So happy that our HREC will be led by America First, Conservative Republicans who are ready to work hard for our county.
The unanimous vote to takeover the Charlotte County REC was beyond our expectations. Now that our neighboring County’s also have AF boards, it will offer great opportunities for us to work together. WEG1WGA
Not very smart, are you? Why don't you post the email, from me, that is so damning. Voters might actually learn something. I know which one it is. In it, I responded to somebody that, in 2020, the money was used in Alachua County, not for voter outreach, but for voter ID / check-in hardware and to invest in equipment to bring absentee ballot processing back to Alachua County. These were things that specifically contributed to voter ID enhancement and ballot security. I say when she's right, and I criticize when she isn't right, as I did quite often, this year.
Next, in Alachua County, only one board position changed, and that was Chairman, but, now, that election is being redone.
The guy that, ostensibly, won, is pretty libertarian and conservative, but I wouldn't, by any stretch of the imagination, put him in the populist crowd that I consider you. Like me, he's a true conservative, not a populist.
And, yes, please read all about how the Democrats hate me.
A good number of Sarasota County REC members left the December 1st election meeting with a somewhat sour taste in their mouths. Unfortunately, Conni Brunni was taken behind closed doors with Sen. Gruters and the other Chair candidate after the mysterious extra eight (8) votes were announced, and she subsequently conceded the election. Under these circumstances, it would have been very disruptive to the entire election process and difficult for any voting member to make a point of order motion objection to challenge the vote. Thanks again for the good reporting on local RPOF news.
Hallelujah, what a beautiful wake up call! To all you Republicans that are still drinking the Kool-Ade and you know who you are, you fools. It’s about time our County got smart …yep Charlotte County. Now we need to get the other criminals out of their comfy positions. Enjoy it while you can cause it’s coming to an end you RINOS.
Unfortunately, BREC (Broward County) fell to the RINO's. The Chairman ushered in tons of new 'selected' PC's in our October meeting to secure his vote, some that were not even verified republicans. Broward is the red-headed stepchild of FL! The chairman boasted how we only lost the Governer race by 60% instead of 70% (previous results). SMH. I'm stuck in the blue:(

Cathi, we edited the article to include your run for Pinellas County REC Chair.
Thank you so much!
Good Luck to all of your people on the slate. It’s about time we get the Rinos out.
Good Luck in your election. Remember when the Manatee REC would not allow you to put out material when you came to give a talk?

Could Volusia County be next? Outing the RPOF Establishment Paul Deering.

Here's hoping SJC REC will vote in real America first Patriots soon! Establishment RINOS and power hungry egos must go!!

We gave a big "No thank you" to the Establishment here in Hillsborough County and got our AF team in place!
I'm on it... will spread the hell out of these articles including the "Dark Money". Meg

You can verify them if you go to your SOE and ask for the Republican voting list. Then cross check those people.
What is going on in Pinellas???
Cannot agree more! I am prepared for a long REC meeting on Tuesday ( Volusia County(
