When is the election for chairman?
MCRC Bylaws Article III, Section 1 states:"officers [...] must be Republican electors residing in Montgomery County. They shall be elected for a term of two years on the third Thursday following the the election of members of this organization in each even-numbered year[...]"
This year, the county Republican reorganization will be held on May 8th.
Seems pretty clear from the Bulletin story (thanks for that, Bill) that Bruce Castor is urging the committee to support Bob Kerns for Chairman. This time, I intend to follow his advice. Last time, I listened to Ken Davis and supported Jim Matthews. I should have listened to Bruce, whom I like, but thought was exaggerating how bad a person Matthews is. I won't make that mistake again. If Bruce is for Kerns, so am I. My committeewoman feels the same way. Kerns has two votes in LM.
There are a ton of comments about this topic on http://stansblogtimesherald.blogspot.com.
Here are some samples of what people are saying about Bob Kerns:
“Bob Kerns should win the nomination for chair hands down…”
“I think Robert Kerns should have won it the first time around. He deserves a chance now…”
“Bob Kerns would do a MUCH better job than Ken Davis ... and perhaps save the party…”
“Davis will step down and the chairmanship will be taken by another Asher puppet. This way, they will pit Bob Kerns against an incumbent Chair with no track record for anyone to bash. HOPEFULLY, our committee people will see past this and give Bob Kerns a chance!!!”
“My guess is most people who had an opportunity stolen from them, twice, in 2004 and 2006, as Bob Kerns has would say, "to heck with this, I'm taking my ball and going home." To his credit, over the last four years, Kerns has consistently and generously supported Republican candidates for races from school board to governor. The time has come for Kerns to be given a chance to try to straighten out the Montgomery County Republican Party. I only hope the committee people see it as clearly as so many of us do.”
“I see Bob Kerns as the eventual winner after the county Re-organization. Ken Davis is a weak leader and has been for the past 3+ years. Look at party registration under his leadership...it's in the toilet… His tenure was a waste. Good Riddance!”
“Bob Kerns should become the Republican Chairman. He of course has many irons in many fires, but is well organized and that is what we need to bring the party together...”
I hope Bob Kerns wins in May.
He has proven his dedication to the GOP thru his loyalty and hard work on behalf of Republican candidates at all levels for so many years.
Bob Kerns has the leadership experience and positive attitude that our party needs. And he respects diversity and inclusiveness, as stated in his letter and as proven by the way he conducts himself in his personal and professional lifes.
Please put this article on the Writemarsh Most Wanted, as the MontCo Chairman's race will be an ongoing issue thru May. Thanks.
