1 – Election Results at the Republican Sixth District Convention
Yesterday, 050512, the delegates from the many city and county Republican Committees met for their biannual convention at the Lexington High School. It pleases me very much to report the following winners:
- For the Chair of the 6th District the winner was
Wendell Walker
- For the at-large, 3-seat representation of the 6th District at the Virginia State Central Committee (the Board of Directors for the Virginia Republican Party) the three winners were
Georgia Alvis-Long (Or Georgia Long as she is being dubbed by all) – Augusta County
Mickey Mixon – Roanoke County
Zach Martin – Lynchburg
- For the Shenandoah Region Vice Chair of the 6th District the winner was
Matt Homer – Rockingham
- For the 6th district Delegates to the Republican Nation Convention in Tampa the winners were
Braedon Wilkerson – Lynchburg
Frank Landrey – Bedford
Joe Sonsmith – Shenandoah
-For the 6th District Alternate Delegates to the Republican National Convention in Tampa the winners were
Josiah Tillett – Lynchburg
Jonathan McMillian - Lynchburg
Bethany Lewin – Augusta County
- For the Presidential Elector the winner was
Jared Walczak – Rockingham
Obviously I am proud as punch for Georgia being the lead winner as a representative of the 6th District on the State Central Committee. But I am also very proud and enthused for the others because they overwhelmingly are Ron Paul and Tea Party People who have grown tired of politics-as-usual in Virginia and are determined to put a much more conservative way of thinking in control. This was no small effort on the part of many.
I most earnestly hope that wherever you live you will join your local Republican Committee and help keep the ball rolling with your enthusiasm, energy, and participation in this effort to return the Republican Party and our Republic to the fundamental support and thinking of the U. S. Constitution for a smaller, cheaper, and less imposing federal Government. The same goes for State and Local Government.
One final observation: If the enthusiasm and support for Karen Kwiatkowski when she made her speech to the Delegates at Lexington is any indication of how the Republican Primary will go in June then we may have a new person representing the 6th district in the U. S. Congress.
