Spring Is In The Air And So Are Elections!!! As you read this message, residents of Lone Tree are filling out ballots for Lone Tree Mayor and City Council, due on May 7.   With Republicans on the ballot, we know we will be in good hands!  Tell your Lone Tree neighbors about your Republican candidates, and offer to deliver a ballot to the drop box (up to 5 ballots at time).  We wish the best of luck to all the Republican candidates! For all Douglas County residents, ballots for the June 25 election are incoming, and, boy, what a long ballot it will be!  This ballot will include the vacancy election for someone to complete the currently-empty U.S. Congress District 4 (CD4) seat (remainder of Ken Buck’s term), and the primary election to set candidates for the next full term for CD4…

Now that we are armed with Frank McNulty’s primer on GOP Caucus, let us all make a great showing on March 7, 2024!  Remember that caucus is the place where you can be selected as a delegate to County and State Assemblies, to place your vote for the primary ballot for candidates for County Commissioner, State House and Senate, new Judicial District 23 District Attorney, and US Congressional District 4 Representative.  It’s a worthwhile evening, and time well spent for you and your GOP community. Super Tuesday, the Presidential Primary, is March 5, 2024.  Mark your ballot and vote – no matter what you hear.  Your vote will be tabulated, and it will make a difference to learn the outcome of the ballot voting. Have you heard from all the…

We are off to the races! It will be a busy campaign season as we get to know the many candidates running for Congressional District 4, the statewide races, and Douglas County seats. DCRW welcomes Republican candidates to speak to members at our monthly luncheon. It is a great way for members to hear about their platforms. Attendees at the monthly luncheon also can talk to candidates before or after the meeting, pickup their literature near the check in table, and donate to our Small Donor Committee (one $50 check per year, and/or cash under $20 as often as you wish). Keep an eye out for upcoming information for our CD4 Candidate Forum, scheduled for late March 27, 2024! If you haven’t forgotten, there are just a few days left…

A new year brings new challenges for Republicans in Colorado.  We should accept these challenges opportunities to educate ourselves and our friends on the issues, and to support strong Republican candidates!  And our upcoming electoral races will certainly keep us busy! Your new Executive Board follows years of strong leadership from Barbara Piper and past presidents before her.  We thank them and prior Boards for their mentorship and dedication.  As your new DCRW President, I promise to learn what they teach, and to do this job with dignity and a commitment to our mission: elect Republicans and educate voters. In the coming months, we will do our best to offer engaging programs, a candidate forum, and fundraising opportunities.  At our luncheon meetings, you will hear updates from our elected officials…

It’s hard to believe that this is our November meeting, the last meeting of 2023. Everything has an expiration date and I have reached mine with DCRW.  It was a fun ride, and I enjoyed every minute of it, even the bumpy spots! This is an ever-changing adventure, and the new board that we will elect this month will set us forth on a newer adventure with new leaders that we must all appreciate and work with. In life there are people who show up for us no matter what the cost, no matter how hard it gets. They are always there, and I am so incredibly grateful for the support I have received from all of you. As Ronald Reagan said, “I think it’s time we ask ourselves if we…

Five days in Oklahoma City at the NFRW 42nd Biennial Convention/Board Meeting: some fun, some stressful times, but with a great outcome! Your CFRW and DCRW delegates spent their time learning from great speakers such as Tulsi Gabbard, Gordon Chang, and Riley Gaines, among others. New officers for 2024 and 2025 were elected, hailing from Arkansas, North Carolina, Texas, Illinois, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Arizona.  Our own Region 3 Director, Karen Newton from Texas, was elected Second Vice President.  Our current president Eileen Sobjack is from Washington State, previous president Ann Schockett was from New York, and this time, newly elected Julie Harris is the first president elected from Arkansas. The 1300 plus women that were there from all four corners of this great country proved in the election of these…

Our meeting features our Douglas County Sheriff Darren Weekly. He was to be our speaker last month to testify at the Capitol against another of the Democrat bills trying to further restrict our freedom. He and the other Sheriffs around the state and over 500o of our faithful conservative citizens testified, and they made a difference. THE DEMOCRATS LOST. CFRW had their Spring Board of Directors Meeting a couple of weeks ago. Much was accomplished and we have new goals in front of us to help move Colorado forward toward becoming a Red State again.

The World is a messed-up place, and we must fight back.  As Madeleine Albright said, “Until [we are] carried out, [we] will carry on.”  Women’s voices matter and we must let ours be heard! Our cities are still experiencing a crime crisis thanks to Democrats who refuse to enforce the law.  Our speaker this month is our new Douglas County Sheriff, Darren Weekly who has Democrat Rep Bob Marshall from Highlands Ranch apparently legislating a vendetta against him. We must improve education, strengthen border security and fight crime – the seams of our great country are pulling apart.  The America to which we pledge our allegiance is worth fighting for – so let’s come together to save the country we love.
