Ottawa County Republicans' Newsletter

Editor's Preamble
Dear Ottawa County Republicans,
We are heavy-hearted along with you today at the events that took place in Butler County, Pennsylvania Saturday evening on July 13, 2024. Please pray for our nation as well as the 45th president. Pray for the rally attendees that witnessed trauma. Pray for the families and friends who lost a loved one. We are living in historic times. Ottawa County needs providential intervention as President Trump experienced on Saturday. We would be remiss today not to point this out.🙏
And so we carry on with you in a grinding campaign season. We are committed to keeping our chins up while our prayers are ongoing and we encourage all of you as Ottawa County Republicans to do the same. It appears we are in good company to move forward without fear, because it is what the 45th President is going to do too.
Voter-Education Newsletter
Ottawa County Republicans,
Welcome to our Voter-Education Election Edition of the Newsletter! We are in the thick of it here in Ottawa County! Campaign season is in high gear. We know you're getting a lot of information in your mailboxes to be sure. We're guessing you're also inundated on social media with campaign news and by road signs as well. *Yet, we the have accurate tools below that you will need for voting in the upcoming primary election on August 6th that separates what is valuable from all of the extra noise.
Below you will find our Voter Guide, and then an "Extended" version of the Voter Guide as well, which is a great link featured below to send to people who may be wanting more information about our endorsed candidates.
There are also Voter Education pieces which expose bad actors in this campaign who are wearing the "Republican name," yet are attempting to mislead voters with "clever" language. Please make the time to read these pieces and/or listen to the audios they include.
We also have updates on the campaign/s in our Area News and also a noteworthy Volunteer Highlight this month.
Some of our more fun columns are paused for campaign season and we'll bring them back in August after the Primary so your attention for now can be focused on voting and being informed on information pertinent to the election.
Invest your vote with more value by being informed. Enjoy, and thank you for choosing to equip yourself with knowledge!
