THIS IS SUPER SATURDAY!
|
On Saturday, August 4, volunteers from across the country will be joining together for a
massive door-to-door and phone-banking operation. This will be a huge
day in North Carolina, and were counting on you to help get the word
out! Sign up today and our local Victory staff will contact you with ways to get involved.
There
are less than 98 days until the November presidential election, which
gives us less than 2,360 hours to defeat President Obama and Walter
Dalton. That's less than 2,360 hours to call voters, knock on doors, and
recruit supporters all across this great state. That gives us less
than 2,360 hours to regain a #RedNC. Sign up now to get involved in our Victory efforts across the state!
You can help us by signing up today for
a Super Saturday door-walk or phone-bank 3-hour shift anytime between
9am-9pm. Simply click the image below, enter your contact information,
and your local Regional Field Director will contact you with information
on how to get involved with our Victory efforts.

Sales Tax Holiday Message from Pat McCrory
|
This weekend is the state sales tax holiday, a time to buy the things you normally buy, only tax-free.
Unfortunately,
Walter Dalton agrees with Governor Perdue and wants to raise your taxes
every other day of the year. If elected, he promises to increase the
sales tax by 15%!
15%!
We
can't let that happen. At a time when North Carolina is struggling to
create jobs and get out of this recession, we should be finding ways to
save you money and grow this economy, not tax you more.
I
want you to keep more of your money in your own pocket, not give it to
the government. After all, you know how to spend your money better than
Lt. Governor Dalton and Governor Perdue.
Every day should be a holiday from Governor Perdue and Walter Dalton's 15% sales tax increase.
The only way were going to lower taxes and fix this broken economy is with new, honest leadership in the governors office. If you agree, please take a moment to click here and share this video with your friends.
