Sue,
Thanks much for getting behind this effort. Spoke yesterday with Steve Thomas at the Jackson HQ and he says that there has been a slow but steady increase in the numbers for the event here on the 7th. Several people have started beating the drum as you have done and it seems to be having an effect. I think Steve said about 20 have registered so far and, typically, that number will increase as we get closer to next Saturday. I told him that it seemed to me that the wording of his e-invitation should be changed to make it appear that folks MUST preregister rather than make it appear that they could just show up without prior notice. In any case, I think we will get a good turn-out and especially so with people like you making this special effort. We look forward to seeing you at the event.
Dave

Subject: [Peninsula-Patriots] SOS! Tea Party Support for Jackson Fundraiser
Mid Pen Tea Party friends: We need to jump onboard the Jackson Fundraiser coming up on Sept 7 with both feet! The invitation has been sent out several times and is posted on our website [middlepeninsulateaparty.org] but the response has been slow. Some of us had been considering hosting a mega-fundraiser of our own to support the (MCRC Scholarship) Constitution Contest in addition to our Tea Party Candidates - Cuccinnelli and Jackson, but it takes a lot of organization effort! Election Day is coming quickly and allocation of campaign funds is being made now! Since we have two opportunities to contribute to both of these men being handed to us, we need to promote them enthusiastically! Rather than putting in hours of time and effort, let's write checks for as much as we possibly can! Let the hosts know you plan to come (or can't make it but want to support EW) at
- steven@Jacksonforlg.com
- or 'buy' your contribution/ticket on Eventbrite: http://sept7jackson-eac2.eventbrite.com/
Even if you can't actually go to the open house, you can write a check or send your contribution via Eventbrite to let EW know how strongly we feel about his candidacy. This is a chance to show the Republican Party of Virginia that EW is the kind of man we want to see on our ballot! Only our donation$ will impre$$ them, but you and I know that our prayers and our testimonies are effective in supporting his candidacy. Talking to your neighbors, your relatives, and the folks in line at Wal-Mart are effective too! Don't give up! Don't give in! Don't let up!
How about we get our telephone message system keyed up to let people know we need to support this fundraiser for EW? I will be embarrassed and disappointed if we don't raise $10,000 next week! We can do it! ¡Si, se puede!
The other opportunity, you may know is 1st CD Republican Fundraiser: The 3 Rivers Rally and Pig Roast on 4 - 6 PM on Sept 22 at Historic Rosegill Plantation, St. Hwy 227, Urbanna, VA 23175 but don't wait.!
Thanks, Sue
