Vote Laurie Stringham for Salt Lake County Council At Large

 

Dear Salt Lake County Voters,

It appears that in Mayor Jenny Wilson's mind, her $1.4 Billion Bloated budget is still not enough; she wants more!  Wilson has already told us our taxes are going up.  Although taxpayers feel helpless as the County government takes our hard-earned money, this year you can do something about it and it is as simple as 1, 2, 3.   In one short minute, you can see how together, we can cut the Salt Lake County budget and cut your taxes.  It really is as simple as 1,2,3:

If you would rather read than watch, your instructions for cutting taxes are here:

Earlier this year, when County Mayor Jenny Wilson passed her enormous property tax increase, angry Salt Lake County residents felt powerless. What is worse? Mayor Wilson is not done raising your taxes unless we stop her. The Salt Lake County budget has increased 50% in just six years and now tops a whopping $1.4 billion dollars. We can no longer afford Wilson's tax & spend habits!

Because of this, voters like you asked me to run. But what else can we do to stop Mayor Wilson's out of control spending? Stopping Mayor Wilson is as easy as 1, 2, 3.

Mayor Wilson needs the Salt Lake County Council to approve her BLOATED budgets. She knows she has the votes of her rubber-stamping Democrats. Bradley: yes. Ghorbani: yes. Arlyn: yes. Granato: yes.

Thankfully fiscal watchdogs Richard Snelgrove and Aimee Winder-Newton said no, but they need 3 more votes to keep Wison from picking our pockets. Fortunately, in this election, you have the chance to deliver those 3 votes, by voting yes for Dea Theodore, yes for Dave Alvord, and yes for me, Laurie Stringham. Each one of us has committed to CUTTING the County’s BLOATED budget.

Make sure you, your family, and friends are registered to vote. Every vote counts and your wallet depends on it. This out of control spending must stop. So remember, cutting taxes is as simple as 1, 2, 3:
    1. Dea Theodore
    2. Dave Alvord
    3. Laurie Stringham
for Salt Lake County Council
.

I would love to hear from you regarding this important issue!

Sincerely,

Laurie Stringham
Salt Lake County Council At Large - Candidate

P.S. In my years of working as a precinct chair I have had several associations with Laurie Stringham. She is a genuine and capable person and will do a fine job for us on the Salt Lake County Council.  ---- Jeanette Drake

Interview with Congressman Chris Stewart

 I learned some interesting things. I didn't know Congressman Chis Stewart held some world speed rcords. I didn't know some of the National Security information. I won't be able to vote for Stewart because he doesn't represent my district. But, I sure hope he wins.

Media Bias Against Burgess Owens

 

View this email in your browser

Friends,

Burgess Owens, as we are realizing, is the real deal.  A black man raised in the segregated south, Owens’ high school experience was like a real-life version of the Disney film “Remember the Titans.”  Forced to fight, all while dealing with prejudice and bigotry of his white counterparts, Burgess eventually earned their respect. He later played with the NFL, where some of his most ardent opponents are now his biggest allies. 

But, Owens’ journey didn’t stop there. His life has since been an incredible journey of successes and failures that have helped those around him, taught him valuable lessons, and made him the success that he is.  McAdams’ story -- Ivy League school, white-shoe law firm, election victory after election victory while climbing the political ladder of success -- well, it simply couldn’t be more different from Owens’s story. 

And Owens is still fighting an uphill battle, even today.  He is still fighting an onslaught of attacks, not in the segregated south, but right here in Utah, funded by Nancy Pelosi.  And while he fights, his opponent receives the privilege of what we call media “puff pieces.”

In fact, a report released yesterday by the Media Research Center (MRC) followed the local coverage of the Owens/McAdams race during the last 10 weeks, and shows us a textbook example of what it looks like for a media outlet to try to subtly “tilt” the election in favor of their preferred candidate. 



MRC analyzed all of its stories about the 4th Congressional District during the last 10 weeks, and found that McAdams essentially enjoyed “10 weeks of one-sided favorable coverage.”  It also found that while there it had “essentially no negative topics” about the Democrat, there were many stories referencing negative topics about the Republican, Burgess Owens. 

More disturbing, not only were there no negative stories about McAdams, they found “an assortment of positive stories which reinforced his campaign themes of independence and service on behalf of Utahns.” 

If that statement doesn’t make you angry, perhaps you didn’t read it carefully.  Let me repeat it:  MRC said that the coverage of McAdams consisted of “positive stories which reinforced his campaign themes.” 

This makes my job even more difficult. But as conservatives, we are used to this battle. And here in Utah, it’s the same battle. 

Owens’ life is frightening to Democrats like Pelosi, because he has done the one thing Democrats fear most from someone like him:  succeed. 

And yesterday’s new report simply tells us what we already know:  we simply cannot rely on the media to help Utahns get to know the real Burgess Owens. They are more than happy to highlight his failures.  But they will never tell us about his successes. 

In short, we need your help. Please donate so we can counter these nonstop attacks on a good man--a man whose life is truly the American dream, and who is exactly the kind of person we need in Congress.

Derek Brown

Utah Deserves Better

 

Friends:

Burgess Owens has been sharing his heart-wrenching and incredible life story with Utah. He pulled himself out of bankruptcy, working as a chimney sweep to provide for his young family, creating success out of failures.  


In his nationally-televised speech at the Republican National Convention, he said “I’m running for Congress because we don’t need more career politicians.  We need a few more chimney sweeps.”

Burgess’s life story showcases everything good about America:  an African American man who had nothing, struggled against the odds, and created the American Dream.  

Now … do you understand why Ben McAdams and his party are spending millions of dollars flooding the airwaves trying to tear Burgess down?

McAdams is now flooding the airwaves, criticizing Burgess for his failures -- all the while failing to tell you how the Burgess story even ends.  Yes, he failed, as we all do.  But more importantly, he refused to believe he was a victim, picked himself up, and eventually succeeded.

Unfortunately, McAdams “forgets” to tell us the rest of the Burgess story.

In that light, it’s also easy to see why Burgess is a threat--not only to McAdams--but to the person who has helped him raise those millions, the one McAdams votes with 89% of the time:  Nancy Pelosi.

You see, McAdams is about to spend literally millions of dollars in the next two months defaming a hardworking man whose story epitomizes everything good about America.

And after everything Utahns have endured in 2020, they will now watch McAdams’ unrelenting attacks on Burgess for the next two months for simply doing the one thing Democrats fear most:  succeed.

However, our party is committed to Burgess’s success, and we need your help.

Please donate TODAY to help us elect Burgess to Congress--a man who, through his failures, has succeeded in creating the American Dream.

After all, when a good man like Burgess succeeds, we all succeed.

Chairman Derek Brown

Utah State GOP Nominating Convention Report

Victory!
 
Last weekend, the Utah Republican Party held its 2020 Nominating Convention, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the results!
 
This morning, both Forbes Magazine and Politico published in-depth articles highlighting the Utah GOP success, while focusing on our pioneering use of new technology. 

Delegate feedback has been incredible.  Over 93% of our credentialed delegates voted. In fact, more delegates actually voted this year than in either the 2018 or 2019 conventions! 
 
In a delegate survey, almost 1000 delegates provided us this information:
  • 90% reported being “satisfied” or “very satisfied” with the convention
  • 87% reported being more likely to serve as a delegate if future conventions are online
  • 89% reported that their experience with our voting software was “positive” or “very positive”
  • Only 13% prefer to return to a traditional, in-person convention
Most interesting is that over half of the delegates reported spending over 10 hours preparing to cast their vote. This confirms what our own experience told us—they took their job seriously! There was more meaningful delegate engagement in online town halls, one-on-one FaceTime calls with candidates, reviewing of materials created by the party, and watching candidate speeches than in any year in memory.
 
Candidate feedback was also amazing. Our candidates rose to meet these new challenges and found new, meaningful ways to engage with delegates. The party involved the candidates as “partners,” provided national experts to train them, and was more transparent in providing them data than ever before.  Many candidates who have run in the past stated that they spent less money and less time traveling this year while spending more time in meaningful communication with delegates.
 
For the first time, any of us can remember our convention actually made money! These excess funds will now be used to do what the party should be doing – helping our candidates get elected in November.
 
This past Monday I certified our final list of Utah Republican nominees to the Lieutenant Governor’s office. You can view the list here.

I wish all of our candidates the best as we enter the primary election cycle, and look forward to robust debates showcasing how Utah is a model of civility.  Finally, I commit all of my energies to one thing: helping our candidates win this November. 
 
With gratitude,
 
Derek Brown
Chairman, Utah Republican Party
