Newsletter #28:
"Lady Liberty Needs Your Vote in 7 Days"

DATE: October 29, 2024

Friend —

With only one week left until Election Day on November 5, I am firing on all cylinders as I meet with Geauga voters.

Will you make a final donation to amplify our social media advertising between now and Election Day?

First of all, thank you to everyone who came out for our two meet-and-greets this month with Rep. Sarah Fowler Arthur and Rep. Steve Demetriou.

It was valuable to hear from you on the issues and priorities our Geauga Republican elected officials should be pursuing in state and county government.

And minutes after my meet-and-greet with Rep. Sarah Fowler Arthur ended, we headed straight to the Burton Chamber of Commerce’s candidates forum.

Burton Chamber meetings hold a lot of fond memories for me, so I decided to focus my comments on them!

And with Halloween upon us, I have even more opportunities to connect with Geauga residents — and dressed in the spirit of the season.

While there are many ghosts and goblins this autumn, I opted for a more hopeful costume as Lady Liberty — shining a light for freedom and opportunity during these dark times.

I appeared as Lady Liberty at the Halloween Night Out Dinner & Fundraiser, hosted by the Geauga County Sheriff's Office LOSS Team and Friends of LOSS.

The LOSS Team is a group of dedicated volunteers who provide support at the scenes of crimes, accidents, and other tragedies.

It was great to attend the event and support this cause alongside over 100 attendees.

And what is Halloween without trick-or-treating for the kids?

That’s why I was glad to set up a tent and welcome residents at the Geauga County Sheriff's Office Trunk-or-Treat!

I enjoyed interacting with thousands of voters and costumed kids at the event, particularly those too young to quite understand the tradition!

As we conclude our Halloween celebrations this week, let’s turn our focus to Election Day, just 7 days away!
