Posted by Alex Berry on July 1, 2012 · Leave a Comment
The Palm Beach County Tea Party Boca Raton Chapter and the South Florida 912 are joining forces on July 10th for another spectacular evening of like-minded fellowship through the three core principles of the Tea Party. Joyce Kaufman will moderate this FL Senate Candidate Forum with candidates Melanie Peterson, Mike Lameyer, and Geoff Sommers at Boca Greens Country Club (19642 Trophy Drive ). Ellyn Bogdanoff, who will be facing Lameyer for FL Senate District 34 in the GOP Primary on August 14th, was unable to attend due to a scheduling conflict. Peterson and Sommers will square off for an August 14th GOP primary for District 25.
This forum is being held in lieu of our normal monthly Dinner/Speaker Event (and we pushed it back one week, to July TENTH, instead of the THIRD, to avoid conflicting with holiday plans for July 4th).
We are fortunate to have local veteran conservative talk show host Joyce Kaufman join us as the moderator, and Lou Galterio will sing the National Anthem. She will be asking the candidates a number of questions put together by our respective leadership teams, and the questions will involve local policy issues, and how the candidates’ positions on those issues might be viewed from the perspective of our three core principles.
As usual, doors will open at 5:30pm and the Cash Bar will be open. Dinner ($15 includes tea, coffee, dinner, dessert, tax and gratuity) will be from 6:00pm to 7:00pm. We will make announcements for the Palm Beach County Tea Party and South Florida 912, and the Candidate forum will commence around 7:15. People are welcome to attend the Forum, at no charge and simply skip the dinner portion. Either way, we still need a head count, and will ask you to click on the RSVP button below.
This event promises to be an exciting evening of getting to know our local candidates, and to get involved in the political process right here, where we live!
Please RSVP now on the button here, and see you on Tuesday!
