 The effort to put our government back in Republican hands has begun in earnest, and the 5th Congressional District Republicans are poised to be leaders in this task.
2009 has provided a lot of good indicators for the coming election. The municipal elections provided a degree of activity not seen in Minneapolis for decades (along with candidates that outperformed the 2008 Election Day results by nearly 10%). Furthermore the local party units have been infused with new and creative leadership hungry to show what they can accomplish, and the volunteers to back them up. Finally, the special elections in early 2010 have shown the possibility for extraordinary Republican gains in November.
The 5th CD’s role in this is to make certain that candidates and volunteers are able to do their jobs. We provide the infrastructure to support federal, statewide and legislative candidates and their volunteers. Our efforts in the Minneapolis area provided the boost necessary to re-elect Tim Pawlenty in 2006, and our activities this year will help keep the Governor’s office in Republican hands for the next 4 years.
The 5th CD has been and will continue to be one of the most effective Republican volunteer organizations throughout the state. To support our efforts, please take a moment to click on the PayPal logo on this page and donate to the 5th CD Republicans. A strong 5th CD organization is critical to the statewide effort, and a generous donation to the 5th CD may be one of the most effective ways to ensure a successful Republican year in Minnesota.
If you have questions about our plans and want to get involved, feel free to contact me.
Thank you,
Carleton Crawford, Chair
5th CD Republican Committee

 The 2009 elections are over, but there are still ways to make a difference locally. Consider applying for county and city appointed positions -- it's a great way for future candidates to build experience or for those who want to become actively involved in city government.

From a press release issued from the Republican Party of MN:
Busted: Rybak Forced To File For Governor Two Days After Reelection As Mayor
St. Paul- Republican Party of Minnesota Chairman Tony Sutton today issued the following statement regarding Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak’s decision to file for governor.
“What does R.T. Rybak know? On the eve of a campaign finance board decision regarding his extensive statewide gubernatorial campaign travels, Rybak has suddenly filed for governor just two days after being reelected mayor of Minneapolis. It’s clear Rybak was forced to file because the Republican Party of Minnesota proved that his relentless statewide campaigning for governor was making a mockery of our state’s campaign finance laws. It’s unfortunate Rybak didn’t man up during his mayoral campaign and admit what everyone already knew: he’s been running for governor for months.” |
