Three simple words which embolden the members of Cherry Creek Republican Women to serve our constituents with honor and integrity.
To engage others through events focused on fellowship and political philanthropy; to enlighten, providing content and resources to form educated decisions regarding the issues and candidates, and to empower; giving our members a passionate voice and platform to be heard in the halls of political discourse and an active role in the electoral process.
These tenants of engage, enlighten and empower speak the truths which are our foundation.
CCRW PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE – NOVEMBER 2024
The election is over. The stress and pressure of campaigns is behind us. The future of national leadership is “settled” - at least for the next 4 years. We know what’s ahead – and we can guess that there’s more to do…
We had some terrific Arapahoe County (and related) candidates:
Robyn Carnes (SD 16), Frederick Alfred Jr. (SD 21), Bob Lane (SD 26), Pedro Espinoza (SD 28), Michaela Neal (HD 3), Jeff Patty (HD 38), Darryl Gibbs (HD 40), Rob McKenna (HD 41), Carol Chambers (JD 18), Tyler Linnebur (County Com Dist 1), Jeff Baker (County Comm Dist 3), Kathleen Chandler (RTD Dist F), and Kristi Burton Brown CO SBE CD 4). Jon Fabbricatore (CD 6) was fabulous!
We congratulate Kathleen, Kristi, and Jeff Baker on winning their races – and commend the rest of our great candidates for stepping up, and doing such a wonderful job…
So, now what…
Big breath – and look around.
Kathleen Chandler and Jon Caldara (Independence Institute) – have told us that we need to copy the “D” election “infrastructure”, to compete successfully in the voting process.
The D’s put their commitment and their dollars into an effective ground game that is easily mobilized - building their election “machine” from the neighborhood and precinct, on up. We may not have the numbers to win in AC for years to come, and it’s not sexy work, but we can patiently build our network, so we become an integral part of the process that governs us – BUT only IF we are willing.
What is the hard work?
· It is seeking an appointment to a board/commission/committee of one of the 4000 government entities on the Front Range.
· It is attending public meetings for causes you support, or issues that concern you.
· It is about signing up - and speaking up - when a City Council, Board of Commissioners, School Board, etc. discuss a policy that will affect your life, and the lives of your children and grandchildren, and your community/State.
· It is about being part of your District and County precinct/district and county structure.
You voted (thank you), but your job is not done.
A Representative Democracy cannot function without the involvement of its citizens.
Be bold. Be brave. Take your few extra hours and put them to work – in and for your community…
Thanks for all you do,
Dorothy G., President, 2024-25 CCRW
