Endorsements

Your kind words are deeply appreciated. If you wouldn’t mind, please take just a moment to jot them down and e-mail your testimonial to Pete Alexion with a photograph, so we can add them to the ‘Endorsements’ section on our web site. Thank you!

Got A Few Minutes?

Volunteers are the lifeblood of our campaign and I couldn’t do it without your generous support. If you can spare a few minutes, here and there, please e-mail Mark Fish with your interests. Currently, we have a huge need of folks to staff our booth at the Tanana Valley State Fair.

Would You Hire Her?

For nearly eight years, an employee took on 38 projects and failed miserably at every one of them. What comments would you enter on her performance review? Would you agree to give her another chance?

Lisa Murkowski sponsored 38 bills, of which none came into law. Zip. Zilch. Nada. Yet I haven’t met one of her supporters who were aware of her ineffectiveness. Please help spread the word.

Grassroots

We started this campaign with nothing but hope for America. But as you can see from the above activities, we made every single penny of your donations count with an investment that is only 4% of our opponent’s war chest.

Every day of this campaign, we’ve gotten another inch closer as we enter the final stretch of a close primary. But we’re up against outside special interests. What’s wrong with this picture? Does that seem right to you? Do you wonder whom she’s been working for?

Signs, T-shirts, and bumper stickers help get the word out, but the bills are adding up. Frequent flyer miles are nice, but not free.

We’re too close for comfort and a few dollars from everyone will make a huge difference. Won’t you please consider one more donation to the primary campaign?

Concerts

Country Music For Political Rally

There will be two ‘Conservative Country’ concerts sponsored by our campaign, starring Grammy Award Winner Bryan White.

The Fairbanks concert will be held on Tuesday, August 10, 2010, 6:00 PM at Friends Community Church. Click here for ticket information.

The Anchorage concert will be held on Wednesday, August 11, 2010, 7:00 PM at Discovery Theater and opened by Adele Morgan. Click here for ticket information.

Of course, yours truly will be speaking at both concerts.

Video

I’d like to share with you two videos that I’m especially proud of. They’re entitled, “It’s Election Season and Murkowski is Shedding Her Views”.

Long version

Short version

I’d love to hear your ideas for more videos.

Thank You!

From the bottom of our hearts, my family, campaign staff, and I sincerely thank you for your overwhelming support, donations, volunteer efforts, prayers, and thoughts as we approach a significant milestone in our Nation’s contentious timeline. God bless.
