Medium Signs Available

The large signs are up! Lots of medium signs are up.
I have more medium signs in my office; the very small yard signs arrive next week. Thanks to all of y'all!!!!!

Hooray for the Sign Volunteers!

Have you seen the signs yet? Thanks a bunch to our fantastic sign "put-uppers"!!!!! Jim Lahmeyer, Peg Lahmeyer, Jerry Musselman, Pat Gerwig, Dave Gerwig, Larry Shaffer, Janet Collins, Lauryn Sessler!! We have some medium signs left; small ones will arrive in about a week.

If you know of a location that needs a sign, let us know.

Also, several business owners have been willing to put signs in their windows or inside their businesses.

Thanks to everyone!

Voter Registration Forms Available

Saturday (9/15) is the last day to register to vote in the Oct. 16th primary. Voter Registration Forms are available in my office at 107 S. Main Street, Summerville, SC (Steinberg Law Firm). I also will try to keep a few in my car with me between now & Saturday. You may also register with the Dorchester County Voter Registration Board or the Charleston County Voter Registration Board. This is VERY important. Please register -- and vote!

What are the Issues?

Traffic congestion, illegal immigration, children's needs, senior citizens' concerns, continued improvement in schools, NO unnecessary taxes, efficiency in government.

Do you have some to add?

Only FIVE weeks away

It doesn't seem possible that we vote just five weeks from now, but it's true, and the next five weeks will be crammed with activity! Lots of volunteers are working, and so am I. We've done some limited mailing, a few talks to groups, some meetings, out meeting voters, shaking hands, listening, etc.

Your efforts in getting commitments from voters is really, really important. Keep me posted, okay?

Where Are We Now?

Filing closed today. The last I heard, there are 4 Republicans from Dorchester County and 1 Democrat from Dorchester County in the race for House District 94. Reports immediately after the filing deadline indicated no one from Charleston County entered the race.

The primary is the 4-person race, with voting scheduled for Oct. 16 and the likely runoff on Oct. 30. One area expert today said the race would be too close to call, predicting a 25% chance for each of the four!

That means we need to WORK! What does "work" mean in this instance? It means getting commitments, getting folks registered to vote before Sept. 15th, -- just a few days away. It means helping put up signs. It means asking every person you know who is over 18 to help us.

Together, we can do it!

It's Official!

Filing was done today, August 30th, so the candidacy is official. It won't be in the Summerville Journal-Scene tomorrow - even though I provided the info before the deadline - because there was too much breaking news in the Summerville area. Ryan Castle promised that it would appear "prominently" in Wednesday's edition.

In the meantime, things are popping! Y'all are doing such a terrific job. We've had volunteers to help put up big signs, volunteers to deliver yard signs, volunteers to have yard signs in their yards - and more. Of course, we will need even more folks to help with signs. This is a big project.

Finally, let me hear from you about the signatures for the "Grassroots Gang." Keep up the good work!

Deadline for Registering to Vote

The deadline for registering to vote on October 16th is September 15th. If you know of neighbors, relatives, friends, business associates who are not registered or who may not be registered, bug 'em to get registered before the 15th. This can be done in person or online but must be done right away!!! With so much growth in our area, this is a crucial part of the campaign. Signs, signatures, contributions - all are important; voting, though, is an absolute necessity. Please REGISTER now.

The Grass is Growing

Actually, it's the Grassroots Gang that is growing! Y'all have done an amazing job in enlisting others to support and help our campaign. We need each and every one of you. Thank you very much, fellow "gangsters."

Glad to hear about the signs

Glad to hear that the campaign is going to use signs. I hope it will be soon.
