City Auditor Race

City Council Race

School Board Race

The battle isn't completely over, but congratulations owed to Stephen M Cicak and Barth Cotner, while we await the results of Robert Barga's race.

To those that did not prevail, I offer the following quote from Teddy Roosevelt, known as the Man in the Arena: 

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

It's hard to put you and your family through this process. Thank you for taking this on.

MEETING!

TOMORROW, JUNE 27TH  AT 6:30

REYNOLDSBURG CITY BUILDING.

DON'T MISS IT - THIS IS GOING TO BE A GREAT ELECTION YEAR!

Little mistake on the calendar!  If you read the meeting was tomorrow night (May 23) - that was a mistake!!  The meeting is always the last Tuesday of the month so this month it's May 30, 2017.  That May 23rd entry is now a bird (see meme).

We are onward to November. Congratulations to all the primary candidates in running aggressive campaigns. 

There are 188 days to the General Election. We will need some rowing oars in the water for this fall. There will be six, possibly seven, candidates vying for three seats. Candidates include:

Barth Cotner, (R)

Chris Long (R)

Aaron DeLong (R)

Kristin Bryant (D)

Stacie Baker (D)

Kelly Cruse (D)

Courtney Martin (I)*

This will be an all hands on deck to push our three candidates through to victory!

Be sure to be at the Club meeting this month!

*Courtney Martin filed her petitions with the Franklin County Board of Elections on May 2, 2017 but has not been certified to the ballot yet.

The Countdown Clock is at Zero.  It's election day.  
Get out and vote!

A big thank you to everyone that turned out for our Annual Lincoln Day Dinner Thursday night. We had a great turnout and a wonderful evening! The activities for the Club keep rolling and we will keep you apprised. More pictures about the Dinner to be added next week, but just a little snippet of the evening:

Top Ten Things Overheard at the 2017 Lincoln Dinner:

10. “I’m only here because Stephanie McCloud called my mom when I wouldn’t return her calls.”
9. “What? Chicken for dinner? C’mon. Next you’ll tell me Ron O’Brien loves St. Paddy’s Day.”
8. “I heard the new Democrat slogan is ‘But we mean it this time.’”
7. “Is that Dan Skinner over there trying to start the wave?”
6. “Stephanie had a Five Hour Energy drink six hours ago. Somebody get Yost up there for Pete’s sake.”
5. “The corn dogs were really bland this year at the Reynoldsburg Democrat Dinner.”
4. “Stephanie McCloud is the Club President? I would totally take a Nerf bullet for her.”
3. “Officer, there must be some mistake…”
2. “I think Trump is tweeting about this Lincoln Dinner.”

And the #1 thing overheard at the 2017 Lincoln Dinner:

1. “I’m confused; I was told Thad Matta would be here autographing NIT championship shirts.”

Great Club meeting tonight!  Thank you to Judge Jodi Thomas for addressing the group.

We look forward to Aaron Schlabach next month and thank you for Sean McCarthy joining us too.

Aaron has a kick-off event coming up... be sure to attend if you are able!
