Greeting from President

Date: 2013-02-14

My Fellow Democrats:

February greetings to you all! The Democratic Club of Beaufort County South of the Broad held our monthly steering committee meeting Wednesday, February 13^th. In this meeting we unanimously agreed to support Elizabeth Colbert-Busch for Congress.

The County held a forum with Elizabeth Colbert-Busch and Ben Frasier on Tuesday, February 12^th. As a result of the forum, the County Executive Committee endorsed Elizabeth Colbert-Busch for Congress.

Now we have another chance to elect a true blue Democrat to represent us in this newly redrawn first district. On Tuesday, Elizabeth said, “We can do this. Charleston County went for Obama in November!” In other words, the first district is progressive and Democratic. The main goal is to get our Democratic and Independent voters to the polls with state issued I.D’s in hand.

Democratic and Republican primaries occur on March 19^th. There will be a second primary, (for Republicans most likely), April 2^nd if no candidate gets 50% of the vote. The special election, to elect our new first congressional district representative will be May 7^th. The election commission is already advertising I.D.’s are required. Currently the County Democratic Party has a committee making sure our voters all have I.D.’s. Again, they will be required. To learn more or apply for an absentee ballot, go to http://www.bcgov.net/departments/Community-Services/voter-registration-and-elections/.

The Colbert-Busch campaign will be opening an office in Bluffton. You don’t want to miss being a part of this special election or as Mark Rubio said in his Republican response to The President’s State of the Union Address, “Do you want to be responsible for America’s decline”? I sure don’t.

John Giles- President of the Democratic Club of Beaufort County South of the Broad
