Time to Vote!

The GOP Presidential Preference Primary is Tuesday, January 31st. You knew that – and now, if you’re like me and have put off your decision as long as you can, it’s time to Vote!

The Supervisor of Elections website has the precincts listed for this election. If you’re not certain about your precinct and can’t find your voter registration card, then look it up at the Precinct Finder. When in doubt, call the Supervisor of Elections, at (561) 656-6200. The polls are open from 7am to 7pm.

Remember (since it was in today’s paper as another ‘problem’ with Florida) – the only candidates of the many listed on the ballot still in the race are Newt Gingrich, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum.

Good luck to all of us!

Impressions of Three Campaign Rallys

Early Voting Starts Saturday 1/21

You watched the debates, you took our survey (or didn’t), attended the PPP Event or looked at the Voters’ Guide. Now it’s your chance to vote for the GOP Presidential Candidate of your choice. For most of us, it’ll be a difficult choice – but don’t use that as an excuse! If you anticipate for any reason that you won’t be able to make it on Election Day, January 31st – then vote early – by either going to an Early Voting Location or voting by Absentee Ballot.* Always check with the Supervisor of Elections if you have any questions either on their website or at (561) 656-6200..

Important – if you aren’t registered as a Republican – you will not be able to vote in the Presidential Preference Primary.

Economic Freedom and the Path to Prosperity: Two Part Series

The Republican Club of the Palm Beaches is pleased to present a two-part series: Economic Freedom and the Path to Prosperity.

As Conservatives, we know that government control over our economy interferes with our ability to provide for our families. And so we have come to understand that freedom from job-killing regulation is vital to our prosperity and our children’s right to realize the American Dream.

Our livelihood and our liberty depend upon our Economic Freedom.

Part I of our series will explore government’s role in promoting economic opportunity, innovation, and job creation. We will be joined by Dr. Carrie Blanchard, Vice President of Research and Public Policy for the Florida Chamber of Commerce. Dr. Blanchard has been a leader in promoting pro-growth policy and economic opportunities for all Floridians.

Part II will consider charitable giving as an alternative to the welfare state, as we can only promote economic freedom if we are willing to limit the burden of government redistribution. We will be joined by Charles Bender from Place of Hope, a faith-based child services organization which is largely funded by charitable giving. And we hope to also be joined by Robert McClure, President and CEO of the James Madison Institute (invitation extended). JMI is a Florida-based research and education organization that works to help shape our state’s future by promoting practical free-market policies.

We hope that you will join us to explore some of the most important issues facing our state and our nation today.

Part I: January 25, 2012 at noon at Bear Lakes Country Club

Part II: February 22, 2012 at noon at Bear Lakes Country Club
