Mission Red White and Blue Joint Meeting a Huge Success

At the joint meeting of the SJCGOP and the Polk County GOP in early September, a large and enthusiastic crowd welcomed TX-08 Congressional Candidate Morgan Luttrell. Morgan shared his thoughts on the current US political climate and his plans once he is elected. And, visiting with our like-minded neighbors to the east was great!

Catherine Engelbrecht Delivers the Shock and Awe

Just when we thought things couldn't get any more suspect with our elections, Catherine Engelbrecht with True the Vote dropped new election bombshells on the group at our September 7th meeting.

In addition to the breaking news, the large crowd was rewarded with riveting tales of Catherine's storied history working towards free and fair elections. Her message to Republicans? Get involved. Show up, work for integrity, and volunteer at your local elections to help ensure elections are open and accurate. Being there makes all the difference.

Help Catherine and her efforts by donating to True the Vote here.

Many thanks to Charisa Arizpe for organizing this wonderful and extremely informative event.

Floating our Way to GOP Victories

Kudos to members of the SJC Republican Club for stepping up and putting together our float for the San Jacinto County Fair Parade. The Club was well represented with a lot of GOP winning spirit.

Many thanks to Jewel Murchison Jackson for leading the effort, and Dee Galando, Edith Kyle and Connie Billingsly for assisting. Well done ladies.

Facts Are Not Easy to Come by on the SJC Innovation Center Project

Op-Ed by Tammy Betancourt

You may or may not know about the County’s plans to build a 10,235 sf Innovation and Emergency Center on the property just east of the County Storm Shelter. While we’ve heard mention of said Center in a few County Commissioner meetings, details are extremely hard to come by about this project.
