Letter from the President by Charli Thyne

Dear Patriots:


Just think - in a couple of days all of the crazy and maddening political TV ads will be gone! I, for one, am so ready for this to be over. So, which way will it go? Will we have cause to celebrate our victories, or will we be wondering what the heck happened? I pray that whatever happens we will have peace in our nation.  


I have been heartened by the outpouring of Republican volunteer efforts to get out the vote by calling those who have not yet voted, sending tens of thousands of letters and bringing friends to the polls for early voting.  


President Donald J. Trump is tirelessly crisscrossing the nation doing rally after rally with unmatched vigor and strength. A man or woman half his age would be hard pressed to keep up. And I love his political acumen by working the fryer at a McDonald’s – just brilliant!


Anyone who saw the speeches and felt the “vibe” at his awesome rally in Madison Square Garden knows where the energy and positivity are. His message is of hope and a better future for all. The Dems' messages, on the other hand, center on making abortion legal in all states and the nation; Title IX and making transgender operations available for inmates and paid for by us, the taxpayers; and the ridiculous “Trump is Hitler.”


With precious few days left, if you have not already done so, please get to the polls and cast your vote for all the wonderful Republicans up and down the ballot and especially for conservative constitutional justices.  


Together we will fight, fight, fight!

Together we will win, win, win!

Never surrender!

A final "thanks" for My Faith Votes achievement

Kay Wildt, President of NCFRW, thanks everyone who spent any time addressing and personalizing messages to Christians through the "My Faith Votes" letter-writing project. Special thanks go to the many, many generous donors who provided funding for the stamps to mail the letters.


Our volunteers from MRW, the MCRMC and MC GOP completed over 5,500 letters. In addition to what you did, with other clubs in the state, 143,605 North Carolina voters were contacted - truly an amazing feat!


Nationwide, 889,209 voters in swing states were contacted.

 

Kay says, "It is critical to this election that Christians vote, rather than sit on the sidelines. If only half of the recipients vote because of our work, it may be what swings the election in our favor."


MRW members and others affiliated with the MC GOP know how to roll up their sleeves and make a difference!
