Congratulations Ladies – The 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote, was passed by Congress in 1919.  100 years later, we’re celebrating Women’s History Month.

If you missed our February meeting, you missed a great program that was best described by Wynne Shaw, “It was a singular privilege today to hear Abraham Lincoln speak about the US Presidents who led our country between George Washington and himself — and in the process delivered an amazing history lesson for Douglas County Republican Women and Associate Member men. In the Q&A session, President Lincoln was not only familiar with the historical facts surrounding each question asked, but added ‘the rest of the story’ for his fascinated listeners. Well done, John Voehl (as Abe Lincoln).”

Congratulations to those Regular and Associate Members who were willing to step up and serve and were elected as Bonus Members to the State, CD4, CD6 and JD18.

A repeat from an article I read, can’t remember where I read it, but certainly hope it is true.  There’s an old tried and true sentiment that simply states: “you don’t realize what you have till it’s gone.” And this is what is currently taking place across the heartland as suburban voters, especially women, are coming back home to the Republican Party after fleeing the party of Lincoln during the 2018 midterm election.  That costly boo-boo by fickle Trump supporters cost the GOP the House, which ushered in a radical extremist agenda from crazed Democrats.  We can’t let this happen in 2020 and let the Democrats take over the US Senate.

We must be sure we get all Republicans registered to vote across the country, click here to find information on Colorado’s voter registration status.
