traditional family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, and other
planks in the IRP platform and b) oppose adding gambling, illegal drugs, and
equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. I have
repeatedly asked Bob Grogan who represents me on the IRP State Central
Committee to appoint me to the 2020 IRP State Convention Platform and
Resolution Committee. I served on that committee at the 2008 convention.)

— Let’s do better finding candidates for next election – Adrianne Slash
(DIERSEN: Are you a potential candidate? What do the following think of you and
think of those who share your demographics: those who run your municipality,
your township/ward, your county, Illinois, America, your township/ward
political organization, your county political organization, your representative
on your political party’s State Central Committee, your state political party,
and those who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial
clout in your municipality, township/ward, county, state, and America? The
proof is in the pudding. The proof is who the aforesaid a) encourage to run for
offices and b) discourage from running. Ever-increasingly, in Wheaton, in
Milton Township, in DuPage County, in Illinois, and in America, the more of the
following that you are, the more that the majority of the aforesaid discourage
you from running: Trump supporter, Protestant, conservative, patriotic,
Republican, American, White, male, older, gun owner, German American, draft
avoider, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long
time.)
https://www.ibj.com/articles/slash-lets-do-better-finding-candidates-for-next-election
(FROM THE ARTICLE:
Balance should not be just an idea, it ought to be a priority goal for all.
Elections always have consequences and one consequence we should look into
after the 2019 municipal election is a lack of balance on the local front. Less
than 25% of Marion County voters participated in an election that sets the
leadership that hits closest to home for the next four years. These results are
what we get when the community is not so into the election. All the issues that
rise to the top are likewise the priorities of the 25% who were interested. We
can do better, but it starts long before Election Day, long before the primary,
long before slating conventions. It happens as candidates are identified. Communities
deserve candidates who reflect the community, as it exists at the time of the
election, not reflective of a line started long ago that lets the next one
simply get called up. Communities deserve the right candidate for right
now—candidates who are inspired, who have been working, who are in it for the
people, who understand the current needs and bring with them the expertise
required to get the work done. I am convinced that our low turnout is tied to a
lack of inspiration and interest in the processes, and whom we have running. If
you look at the Indianapolis City-County Council races, the candidates who have
personal ties to their districts have been able to draw their support systems,
networks and, ultimately, neighbors to the polls. These communities had higher
turnout. Imagine a year in which the candidate pool is representative of the
people and chosen for the candidates’ community-level work and for the good of
the people, not for commitment to party. Consider what it would look like to
have an election cycle with full community buy-in—one in which candidates
entered with excitement and fresh community-driven ideas.)

CAPE COD TIMES
— Only by lawless logic would we include illegal aliens in Census – Adam
Lange, Vice Chairman, Brewster Republican Town Committee
https://www.capecodtimes.com/opinion/20191123/only-by-lawless-logic-would-we-include-illegal-aliens-in-census
(FROM THE LETTER: I
attended the 2020 Census event at Barnstable Town Hall on Nov. 13. It confirmed
how misguided our state government has grown, and reminded me how Donald Trump
got elected in 2016. Secretary of State William Galvin told a packed room about
his efforts to count everyone in next year’s census. He highlighted that
illegal aliens should be included in the count, since their information cannot
be shared with other government agencies (aka law enforcement). The U.S. Census
determines who receives a finite amount of federal funding and apportions
congressional seats. When Massachusetts government officials scheme to inflate
their numbers by including the estimated 270,000 illegal aliens for whom they
have created a sanctuary, it siphons off money and representation from real
Americans in law-abiding states. When congressional seats and Electoral College
votes are unfairly distributed, the 14th Amendment’s “one person, one vote”
standard is violated. This lawless logic promoted by liberal state officials
puts Americans last, and most likely will result in President Trump’s
reelection in 2020.)
