ACRC Canvass Results

  

Mark Kelly        244

Landey Patton   46

  

Thank you to everyone who came out and voted in the canvass.  Whether you voted for me or for Landey, I look forward to going to work for you as your Chairman. 

  

We should all be encouraged that the participation in this canvass was over 20% higher than the 2006 canvass.  It demonstrates that there is still enthusiasm for our Party here in Arlington.   

Join Us!

If you voted in the canvass for Chairman, then you care, as I do, about the future of the Republian Party here in Arlington. If you're not a part of the ACRC now, I encourage you to come to the next meeting on May 28th and find out more about joining the Committee. Or, let us know if would be willing to volunteer some time as we approach this fall's election. We must work hard to support Senator McCain for President as well as our nominee for U.S. Senate.

A Message from Mark . . .

Thank you for visiting my website!

After my campaign for Clerk last fall, I began to think about how I could best stay involved in the ACRC in the future. When current Chairman Rafael Bejar announced he would not seek re-election, I decided to enter the race to succeed him.

Looking toward this November and beyond, my vision is to build the Arlington County Republican Committee into a real alternative to the Arlington Democrats.

Locally, ours is the only voice that stands in opposition to a County Board, School Board, and delegation to Richmond that is now totally Democratic.  Only by strengthening that voice can we hope to regain some of these seats.

Working with you, I will take a comprehensive approach to revitalizing the GOP in Arlington.  

I look forward to speaking with you personally about my ideas in the days to come.

The Party of Ideas

I believe the Republican Party is best equipped to offer common sense solutions to the issues facing Arlington.

The Fundamentals

I will work on the basics: fundraising, party membership, precinct captains, voter identification, GOTV and candidate recruitment.

Technology

Facebook, YouTube, blogging and other Internet-based tools are available for our use, and I will implement them as Chairman.
