Greetings fellow Henrico Republicans. I hope that this email finds you well.
Our recent elections were a great result for Henrico Republicans! Any way you look at it, victories for the 14
out of the 15 candidates who ran was a great result.
The election was about maintaining good, conservative,
government – “The Henrico Way”. We
maintained it!
Many people deserve credit for the victory. Of course our strong field of candidates led
the way. There was an army of volunteers
(campaign staff, door knockers, telephone callers, envelope stuffers, poll
workers, poll watchers, etc.). There was
a dedicated Henrico County Republican Party led by Chairman Don Boswell. Great job Don! Wonderful job all! You made it happen.
Don has announced that he will not seek re-election as Chairman
of the Henrico County Republican Party.
We will all miss Don’s dedication and experience. I have spoken with many Committee members and
have been encouraged to run; I will do so.
I want to be a Chairman who unites our Committee, grows our
membership, increases our resources for activities, and engages in the business
of the Committee year round – not just for a limited time around
elections. Most importantly, I want to
be a Chairman who helps lead our party to victory! Our elections last week were a “test drive”
for next year. While we can, and should,
enjoy our victories, we must go back to work!
We have a Presidential election next year. We have learned over the last few Presidential
elections that so goes Henrico, so goes the Commonwealth. We lost Henrico to Obama, we lost the
Commonwealth to Obama. Let us be
resolved that allowing Henrico County and the Commonwealth to be presidentially
blue again will not happen! Let us use
the unity and momentum of last week’s election to make the Henrico County
Republican Committee unified and resolved to elect a Republican President in
2016!
I welcome the opportunity to discuss the Chairmanship with
you, and, I humbly ask for your support.
Eddie.
