October 2025 Chairman’s Notes
Good evening Stafford Republicans!
Next Monday, October 13, 6pm social hour, meeting starts at 7pm. We will map out the last few weeks of this campaign season!
We are counting down the days and Winsome Sears and company are surging!
There is a general tone and positive outlook to this year’s statewide campaign and we hope to do our part to bring it to Victory and that victory trickles down into the local supervisor and school board. We are working hard at early voting and setting up for election day. Early voting is a logistical heavy lift early morning and evening and we can certainly use more help, especially if you have a large vehicle or truck.
Please come out and get involved!

January 2025 Chairman’s Notes
Good evening Stafford County Republicans!
This month’s meeting will be somewhat long. I hope to end it by 2100 but there are critical issues we must hit on and vote on to start 2025 out right and to be the most effective county committee that we can for our candidates this year. Just setting expectations.
