IMPORTANT!!! Cobb GOP Precinct Mass Meeting

Revolutionaries,

I cannot stress how important it is that EVERY ONE of us to show up for the Cobb GOP mass precinct meetings.  This is where the delegate process starts and without our people participating in the delegate process, it doesn't matter how many votes Ron Paul gets in Georgia, the establishment will shut us out.

We MUST start recruiting EVERY Ron Paul supporter in Cobb County into our meetup group and make sure EVERYONE shows up to the mass precinct meeting (and bring with you as many friends, family members, and neighbors that will support you/us).  Even if you don't want to be a delegate, WE NEED YOU AND EVERY REGISTERED VOTER THAT IS LOYAL AND WILL SUPPORT YOU/US IN COBB YOU CAN CONVINCE TO JUST SHOW UP and support OUR PEOPLE and so we can send as many of them to the County, District, and State conventions.  We need to have the majority of people show up for each precinct to ensure that we can pick OUR PEOPLE to fill the available seats.  OTHERWISE WE WILL LOSE regardless of the primary vote!

I will organize a meetup leading up to the mass precinct meetings to make sure we know one another and go over the details of the delegate process and what to expect.  I will also update this meetup with additional information as necessary.

Supposedly the meetings start at 10 am.  It is possible that they could change the time on us deliberately to mess us up so we need to pay careful attention as we get closer to Feb 18.  At 10 am, the doors will be locked so we have to BE THERE EARLY.  I set the time for the meetup 1 hour early at 9 am.  We should do our best to be there by then, or no later than 9:30.

I am almost certain there is no cost to attend the mass precinct meeting; however, just in case, bring $20 cash.  If anyone here is worried about money, know that I and probably anyone in the group would gladly pay for you to attend and be extremely appreciative of the fact that you came.  I cannot stress how important it is that every one of us SHOW UP!

THIS MAY BE THE MOST IMPORTANT CONTRIBUTION YOU CAN MAKE TO GETTING RON PAUL ELECTED!

You should also bring your Driver's license or state photo ID and your voter registration card.  If you don't have your voter registration card, go to the Georgia Poll Locator (http://sos.ga.gov/mvp/) website, look yourself up, and print out your voter registration information and bring it.  We will definitely need a photo ID; the voter registration card/printout may or may not be necessary, but let's be prepared for anything.

Now, please start recruiting Cobb County Ron Paul supporters to this meetup group.  We only have 6 weeks and a lot of work to do!

In Liberty,

    Please see the Rules of the Georgia Republican Party, as adopted and certified by Sue Everhart on September 24, 2011, in the "Files" section of this site under the "More" tab above. The entire document is revealing, but please pay particular attention to section 9, which has to do with the Mass Meetings. I have not yet obtained the Convention Call - but please note that the state GOP rules STILL DO NOT permit those WHO ARE NOT IN ATTENDANCE AT THE MASS MEETING, to be elected delegates!!

    Anyone planning to attend this, please try and make it for the delegate training session on February 11th so we're able to meet face to face and know who's who. We'll be able to get a lot of information ahead of time so we can be as prepared as possible.

    Why are we only showing 18 people that are coming on the 18? I'd like to see this number at least tripled. I look forward to meeting all of you Freedom Fighters on February 11. God Bless!

    I registered for the Mass Precinct Meeting
    http://www.cobbgop.org/pmm-preregistration.shtml but unfortunately I missed last Saturday's training. Can anyone fill me in on what is expected? I'm a first timer with all of this.

    I compiled the following data while calculating the allocation of delegates & alternates for my precinct and thought it might be of some use.

    Hello, Welcome. You don't need much training for this first Mass Meeting this Saturday. You have to be a registered voter but you don't have to be pre-registered for this thing. Just show up early and get your name down to be a delegate to the county convention. This part is pretty easy and is less contentious than the later stages. Getting chosen for the State convention and of course national (RNC) is more difficult. That's why we need large numbers to help some overcome those obstacles.

    Are we still having lunch at Picadilly this Saturday right after the mass meeting? I think so. And that might be a good chance to get caught up on what to do and to meet people.

    Saturday is just a very few days away! We need you to be at the Roswell Street Baptist Church on Saturday morning about 8:30. Get coffee and donuts from the Young Republicans, get registered and then find your House District room and your precinct table. Take charge or get involved with other RP supporters. It will be fun and interesting. Looking forward to seeing you there!
