Conroe ISD Bond Referendum Analysis |
|
The upcoming election on November 7 will include a package of four bonds for Conroe ISD totaling $2 Billion. A group of concerned CISD taxpayers, which included several Montgomery County GOP County Executive Committee (CEC) members, headed by Precinct 110 Chair Luis Pedraza, performed an analysis of the bond package.
While in general the group believes there is a need for more school buildings due to growth in Montgomery County and some schools being overcrowded, the conclusion overall is to vote AGAINST the bonds. 2023 Bond Referendum failure simply means another bond package would be proposed at a later date which should address wants vs. needs.

Montgomery County GOP to Hold Town Hall Focused on Law Enforcement Issues and Taxing Entities |

The Montgomery County Republican Party will host a Town Hall Meeting in Conroe on October 26 with a focus on law enforcement issues and taxing entities. This Town Hall is the next in a series providing elected officials and their constituents an opportunity to discuss issues and concerns. Admission is free!

John Wertz serves in Precinct 69 in The Woodlands. As the Montgomery County Republican Party Victory Committee Chairman, he led a Get-Out-the-Vote campaign during this biennium that resulted in the largest turnout of voters in a gubernatorial election in county history.
John has been instrumental in recruiting like-minded Christian Conservatives and helping transform the Party from a top-down dictatorial organization into a bottom-up organization with representative, grassroots leadership. “I enjoy meeting people of many different backgrounds, yet who are all pulling in the same direction,” he says. He and his wife, Rae Lynn, have been married for 36 years and have two sons and a grandson.

Trick-or-Treat Politics: Local Democrats Masquerading as Republicans |
|
The weather is cooling down and Halloween is upon us! There will be people dressing up like ghosts, goblins, witches, and monsters of all kinds, and we will also see people donning costumes of their favorite superheroes, storybook characters, or just fun costumes to make people giggle.
But voters should beware because this is also the time of year just prior to election season when Democrats masquerade as Republicans to try and con their way into office. One such race where you can clearly see a Democrat pretending to be a Republican is in the race for Position 5 on The Woodlands Township Board.

The incumbent, Dr. Shelley Sekula-Gibbs, is a former U.S. Congresswoman and a staunch Conservative who has consistently and fearlessly stood up for Republican Party Principles and against the “woke mob.” In contrast, her Democrat opponent, Tricia Danto, has only recently voted Republican and seemingly only did so for the sole purpose of presenting herself as a Republican in this upcoming election. |

Make Elections Secure in Montgomery County! |
|
Many Montgomery County Republican Party Precinct Chairs and concerned voters have spent two years investigating Montgomery County election procedures and equipment. Their investigation revealed issues that pose a threat to the integrity of our elections. These Precinct Chairs and voters have collaborated to identify necessary changes to address vulnerabilities.
Their work has culminated in a petition that residents of Montgomery County can sign and share to tell the Montgomery County Commissioners that We the People want them to make our elections secure. |

Comparison: RINO/Uniparty vs. Conservatives |
Not everyone who claims to be a Republican is actually a Republican. The RINO/Uniparty hides behind the Republican brand, but they are more concerned with consolidating power and influence than protecting our liberty.

AG Paxton Aftermath: Part 2 |
|
After the not guilty verdict was read and entered into the official record, thus exonerating Attorney General Ken Paxton in the impeachment trial, it left many wondering what was going to happen next. Upon his reinstatement, AG Paxton immediately got back to work fighting for election integrity, border security, and against Big Pharma and Big Tech. On October 6, Paxton announced that he will actively campaign against liberal Republican incumbents across the state.
Members of the House Investigating Committee have doubled down in their vitriol against AG Paxton and on October 9, Paxton filed criminal complaints against each of the House Impeachment Managers for releasing his family’s personal address as “additional evidence” weeks after the trial had ended. The political landscape is changing, folks, so hold onto your hats because it’s most certainly going to be a very bumpy ride.
