Candidate Forum Oct 29th

Be an informed voter! Come to the special election candidate forum for the GA House District 129 Seat. This forum will be hosted by the LaGrange Patriots on Thursday, Oct 29th at 7pm at Hoofers in LaGrange, GA. Bring your questions and concerns and take advantage of your last opportunity to hear the candidates speak before the election. All four candidates will be present for the forum... Earl Davis, Steve Earles, Jerry Luquire, and Kip Smith.

This election is a special election that will be held on Nov 3rd for the former seat held by Vance Smith. District 129 covers portions of LaGrange as well as Harris County, Pine Mountain, and northern Muscogee County. Please remember that even if you are not a resident of this district, it is important to attend this forum to represent your values. Every elected official casts votes that affect all of us, so it is imperative to influence every election.

Contacting Blue Dog Democrats

One of the most effective ways to make a difference in current legislation is to contact the Blue Dog Democrats. These are the "moderate" Democrats that can possibly be swayed on issues like government health care and cap and trade.

Last night at our meeting, we provided an email address that can be used to contact every Blue Dog Democrat in the US House. However, we provided the incorrect email address. The correct address to contact the Blue Dogs is bluedog@mail.house.gov.
