Day 39 & 40 Recap

With less than a week until Election Day, the Fire Pelosi Bus Tour has visited almost every state in the country to spend time with Republican elected officials, candidates, State Parties, and most importantly, the American voters. Day 39 began in Warwick, Rhode Island, at the Rhode Island State Party Headquarters. We were joined by Gio Cicione, State Party Chairman; Carol Mumford, Rhode Island National Committeewoman, and her husband Richard Mumford; Representative Joe Trillo, Rhode Island National Committeeman, and his wife Marilyn Trillo; Scott Avedisian, Mayor of Warwick; Allan Fung, Mayor of Cranston; John Loughlin, candidate for Rhode Island’s 1st Congressional District; Mark Zaccaria, candidate for Rhode Island’s 2nd Congressional District; Kernan “Kerry” King, candidate for Rhode Island General Treasurer, and 100 supporters.

We wrapped up Day 39 in Danbury, Connecticut, at the local Victory Center, where Republican volunteers are working hard to elect as many Republicans as possible on Election Day. When the bus arrived we were met by Chris Healy, State Party Chairman; John Frey, Connecticut National Committeeman; Mark Broughton, Mayor of Danbury and candidate for Connecticut Lieutenant Governor, and 75 volunteers.

Day 40 was spent in Harlem, New York, rallying support for Michel Faulkner, candidate for New York’s 15th Congressional District. It was also a pleasure to have Ed Cox, State Party Chairman; Jennifer Saul, New York National Committeewoman; and Susan Kone, candidate for New York’s 8th Congressional District join us, as well as 50 grassroots activists. The event was a huge success and was covered by the New York Times, BET, NY-1 News, Hip Hop Republicans, and several others.

As Election Day nears and the Fire Pelosi Bus Tour rolls through the final states, we are as confident as ever that Republicans nationwide will be victorious in their races and the Republican Party will begin to turn our country around.

Day 35-38 Recap

As we prepare for victory on November 2nd, the Fire Pelosi Bus Tour has continued across the country meeting with Republican candidates, elected officials, and supporters. One of our recent stops was in Richfield, Ohio, for a special visit to the International Union of Operating Engineers Local 18 Training Center.  We had the opportunity to meet with Business Manager Pat Sink and 50 apprentices to discuss the liberal policies that are killing jobs across Ohio and our nation.

Following Richfield, we headed to Meadville, Pennsylvania, for a Fire Pelosi Victory Rally at the Crawford County Republican Headquarters. We were joined by Rob Gleason, State Party Chairman; Mike Kelly, candidate for Pennsylvania’s 3rd Congressional District; Robyn Sye, Crawford County Republican Committee Chairman; State Representative Brad Roae (OH-06), and 75 Republican Party supporters.

Since every candidate needs as many donations as possible, and with so many important races in the “Pine Tree State,” we headed to Portland, Maine, for a State Party fundraiser. Maine Republican leaders Charlie Webster, State Party Chairman; Jan Staples, National Committeewoman; Rick Bennett, National Committeeman; House Minority Leader Josh Tardy (R-22); and State Senator Jonathan Courtney (R-3), joined us and helped raise $50,000.00. These donations will help the Maine Republican Party support our Party’s candidates during the final days leading up to the elections and ensure their success. While in Maine, we also had the privilege to meet with Paul LePage, candidate for Governor, and Dean Scontras, candidate for Maine’s 1st Congressional District.

As the tour continued through the Northeast, we stopped in Concord, New Hampshire, at the State Party Headquarters to meet with Governor John Sununu, New Hampshire State Chairman; Phyllis Woods, New Hampshire National Committeewoman; and Wayne MacDonald, New Hampshire State Vice Chairman. Also joining us were Ken Merrifield, Mayor of Franklin; State Senator Jeb Bradley (NH-03); State Representative John Reagan (NH-01); State Representative Ken Weyler (NH-08); Chris Wood, candidate for New Hampshire State Senate District 15, and more than 50 grassroots activists.

We wrapped up our trip to New Hampshire with a stop at the local Bedford Victory Center. It was an honor to be joined by Governor John Sununu; Ted Gatsas, Mayor of Manchester; Ray White, candidate for New Hampshire State Senate District 9; New Hampshire State Representative Shaun Doherty (NH-27); New Hampshire State Representative Moe Villeneuve (NH-18); Carol Holden, Hillsborough County Commissioner; Cliff Hurst, Manchester Republican Committee Chairman; Steve Stepanek, Hillsborough County Republican Party Chairman; Frances Rice, National Black Republican Association Chairman, and 50 volunteers.
