Looking back on this week, I am so happy to have been elected to be a part of the Pima County Republican Party (PCRP) Executive Committee. The members of the board, the Precinct Committeemen, the volunteers, and the loyal Republicans who support our cause are showing up everyday. As a County Committee, I believe that we must provide excellent customer service to our constituents; we need to listen. One of my goals is to “seek first to understand then to be understood”.
To those of you who are sharing your concerns with me, I am listening. If you are a Republican voter who is mad as heck because we lost the elections, come work with us. If you are a PC who feels like we are not doing enough for PCs, I am listening to your concerns and will work to implement ideas that will work. If you think I know something but you didn’t tell me, trust me–I probably don’t know; email or call me.
If you want to start a new party, thank you, but you will have to count me out. The PCRP will work with every LD, club, group, movement, PC, Republican voter in Pima County for us all to be successful, but I will not leave or work against my party. Don’t confuse that with thinking that I won’t demand ACCOUNTABILITY. The PCRP will hold each other, elected officials, PCs, volunteers, and Republican voters accountable to do what they say they will do or do the job they have been elected to do. But our primary FOCUS will be holding the 14 elected Democrats in LDs 2,3,4,9,10 ACCOUNTABLE to represent ALL of Pima County and to hold the 6 elected Republican officials in LDs 11 and 14 ACCOUNTABLE to do what they said they would do. Additionally, our FOCUS will be on our Board of Supervisors, City Councils, School Boards, and other elected officials in Pima County. We will work for you. But that leaves me with just one question: Since no Republican has pulled papers to run for City Council, WILL YOU WORK FOR US?
