Greetings Fellow Young Republicans | |
Greetings!
This is a big week, when we finally get to put this long primary season behind us and begin to focus on our goal of taking back our country from the Democrats' far left agenda as well as we will be the first state in the country that will have a public referendum on the Obamacare when we vote on Proposition C.
In addition to the primary elections, be sure to check your for local ballot issues in your area as well. Remember, voting is your right, but being an educated voter is your duty. Click here if you want to see the candidate and issues on the ballot in your area.
Hope to see you at the Victory Parties on Tuesday night!
James W. Knowles III, President Saint Louis Young Republicans |

Upcoming YR Concert Fundraisers | Verizon Wireless Amphitheater allows non-profit organizations to work concessions at their concerts for a percentage of the revenue. The Saint Charles Young Republicans have a contract there and will be staffing a booth (along with the Saint Louis Young Republicans) at every concert this season. We sell mostly beer, but we may also sell water and soda, depending on which concert. It's a great way for the club to make money.
