10 for '10 Campaign
The original purpose of the Wichita Victory '10 page was to promote the election of Republican Candidates in Texas and
across America in 2010. This is critical because the next state legislatures will be tasked with re-distircting state legislatures
and Congressional districts, as well as any state district positions in the respective states. Why is this so critical?
Because the new boundaries will determine the political party that controls the respective districts. Now, I am a Republican
and I believe we need to have Republicans in control of our states and national governments. The way to insure this is to
control the establishment of districts to provide Republican voter majorities. Here is what 10 in '10 proposes
- a donation of $10 from each Republican voter to provide campaign funds to those Republicans running in districts now occupied
by a Democrat or where an "open seat" offers the opportunity for a Republican victory. At present, the Texas House
has only a majority of two Republicans. We need a majority of at least 10 to be able to advance our
agenda. MAKE YOUR DONATION TO INSURE REPUBLICAN VICTORY IN NOVEMBER.

PRIMARY ELECTION RESULTS
Well, it is over! The March 2nd Republican primary went well, with a record turn-out. All the incumbents were re-elected
and several new office holders were chosen to replace those who are leaving. Only one local election will require a run-off.
Tony Fidelie and Greg King will face-off on April 13th to determine who will be the next Judge of County Court of Law No 2. In contested local races Lanham Lyne was selected over Joe Clement as our party nominee for Legislative District 69. Maureen
Shelton was selected to be our next District Attorney and Gary Butler will be the new Judge of County Court at Law No 1. Tom
McCorkill defeated Donna Long in the race to become the next Wichita County Republican Party Chair. Congratulations to
All!
