WE NEED AN MCPS IG
Dear Council President Friedson,
In light of the recent Montgomery County School Board budget crisis, I urge you to listen to the Montgomery County Taxpayers League’s call to work with state legislators to establish an independent Inspector General at MCPS. At this time, it appears that MCPS may be undergoing a Reduction in Force as a result of a $33 million budget deficit. This would be a terrible blow to our students and teachers.

WE DID IT!
Congratulations to all the successful Republican candidates for November.
- Donald Trump for President
- Larry Hogan for US Senate
- Neil Parrott for Congress
- Cheryl Riley for Congress
What hard fought races and great opponents, on to victory in November!
All our folks running as Trump Delegates were chosen to go to the Milwaukee convention, and in the non-partisan race conservative Brenda Diaz looks like she’ll go on to the Board of Education run-off.
Thanks to all our hard workers – during early voting and at the polls on a rainy election day. Organization Chair Ann Hingston and Outreach Chair Brad Botwin were great, as were our polling site coordinators and so many folks who staffed the polls greeting people, installing signs and working the office. It was amazing.
Volunteers got so many Democrat and Independent sign-ups for the 2T Charter Amendment, it was heartening.
Yes, I heard you, so many days of early voting is a waste of time and money. If you’ve got a great campaign story, please tell me.
Thanks for being a great American, a great Republican and a hard worker.
DENNIS MELBY
MCGOP Chairman

WHY DON'T YOU REPUBLICANS DO MORE?
By Stacey Sauter
ARE YOU HEARING THIS RANT FROM ANYONE YOURSELF?
IF SO, GIVE AS GOOD AS YOU GET!
I’d just sat down to lunch last week when, out of the blue, I received a phone call from someone I know who immediately launched into a tirade about receiving a postcard from the Biden campaign.
“Why aren’t you Republicans doing this?” she ranted. “I did not get one piece of mail from you before the primary. No wonder the Democrats have taken over here!” She’s an independent who leans right, so I was grateful to hear her ire over the Democrats, but my wrath was rising with accusations that the MCGOP wasn’t doing anything. Plus, the piece she received was from a national campaign with scads more money.
“You need to bring in some high-profile influencers. A celebrity, who will energize the people, especially younger ones. Really get their attention,” she went on, mentioning a few artists. “Any good contacts?” I responded, knowing personally how difficult it is to book speakers for our events, let alone Drake or Lil’ Wayne.
I then explained how we’d recently held our county convention and that former ICE Director, Tom Homan, and Sebastian Gorka, a well-known former Senior Advisor to Trump, both spoke and that we had over 200 attendees. While neither performed hip-hop, they did give crowd-pleasing and rousing speeches.
“Why didn’t I know about the convention? Why wasn’t it advertised?”

SPANISH LANGUAGE RADIO MEGA RESULTS
Why have we had over 12,000 views of the Ad on our Montgomery County Republican Party Facebook site so far?
Everyone who speaks Spanish is not the same...but the Republican message resonates with almost everyone!
Indeed, we're all the same...we're all different. All English speakers don't come from the same places and backgrounds, the same for Hispanics. In our diverse MoCo our top languages are English, Spanish, Chinese and then follow the chart with almost every language under the sun.
MCGOP has a Spanish language ad on La Jefa AM 700 WDMV, produced by the Maryland GOP Hispanic-Latino Outreach Committee.
If you speak Spanish check it out. HERE.
Essentially it says Vote Republican...you can't afford NOT TO!

WHO'S YOUR FAVORITE DEMOCRAT PRESIDENT?
Survey from last week was interesting. So far Biden and Obama got no votes, most popular Democrat President in the past 50 years among Republicans was Clinton, followed by Carter!
As we go on to the election in November it might help to look at the past and see what's relevant.
