I have submitted a FairTax question for the candidates to answer.
This is a wonderful opportunity to overwhelm the candidates with the local & OH FairTax following! Please show & wear your FairTax gear!

Date: February 23rd
Time: 7pm

Comment by Teresa J. Geron on February 7, 2010 at 12:45pm: I am running for my precinct & for my State Committee Seat in State Senate District #17.

Comment by Teresa J. Geron on February 7, 2010 at 12:44pm: I forgot to add that these positions are determined in May's Primary! 5-4-10

Comment by Teresa J. Geron on February 7, 2010 at 12:43pm: If there are any registered Repulicans out there, here is a link to your State Central Committee elected representatives.

http://www.ohiogop.org/state_committee

You have one elected representative to the County Party from your precinct/ward and one man & one woman to the State Party per State Senate District.

To run for a County precinct/ward position, you can obtain a candidacy notice from your county's Board of Elections. Most do not require signatures.
To run for a State Committee seat, you have to obtain signatures (ususally between 5-15). BOTH are due no later than 4pm on February 18th. STRATIGALLY, don't turn it in prior to 3:45 on February 18th, if you are running un-opposed.
Precinct/ward petition is due to your county Board of Elections, while the State Committee petition has to be turned in to the Board of Elections in your most populous county (if there is more than one County in your State Senate District). GO FOR IT!

Comment by Steve Curtis on February 7, 2010 at 8:45am: I agree, but we need to not lose sight of the fact that while we may be most passionate about the FairTax, to others its an important, but secondary, issue. Many Tea Party folks like the FairTax, but, for them, things like Constitutionality, spending reductions, or less government control are more important.

We can't make them love the FairTax, but what we can, and should, do it show them how the FairTax ties into their agenda. Want to control spending? The FairTax helps educate the public as to the cost of government, making them more likely to support spending cuts. Want less government control? Getting rid of the IRS is a fine place to start.

As Ballester said, "Give people what they want, and they will give you what you want." Show others how the FairTax allows them to achieve their goals, and they'll help us achieve ours.

Comment by Billie on February 7, 2010 at 8:21am: I wonder how many heard the speech? I agree with Lonnie. We need to push FairTax every chance we get.

Comment by Bob Whigham on February 7, 2010 at 7:16am: You are right Lonnie. BTW, did you catch her "...I vetoed SOME of the guvmnt money..." comment?

Comment by Lonnie C. Logston on February 7, 2010 at 6:56am: I would have thought this thing would be buzz'en after GOV. Palin speech at the national tea party meeting? Palin fired up the people last night and thats good. We had the spotlight last night but I would have liked to of heard more about gettig rid of the IRS and about how the fairtax will help our country. This is a grassroots movement by the people for people. Its not a party movement. So lets not lose sight of that. Because if there's a democrat, republican or and independent that will support the US constitution and the fairtax movement then that person will have my ear. Am I right or wrong?

Comment by Billie on February 2, 2010 at 5:09pm: The Dayton Mall area meeting will be tomorrow (2/3) at the Miami Twp Library on Lyons Rd at 6:30 - 8 p.m. Hope to see you there. Bring a friend. Eric Deaton will be the guest speaker.

Comment by Lonnie C. Logston on February 2, 2010 at 4:18pm: will we have a metting tomorrow? when and what time? thanx
