I get this question a lot. My basic answer is, I'm not running to "get stuff" for the people of the 87th. That kind of politics is what has gotten us into the mess we're in, on both the state and federal level of government. It leads to wasteful pork barrel spending and corruption.
I'm running to let you keep what you've earned. I'm running for you to keep your right to express yourself, the fruits of your labor, your right to bear arms, your right to privacy, and your land. I'm running to help you keep your freedom, your property, and your life.

Munger 'n' Me, Part Deux
Dr. Munger, Libertarian gubernatorial candidate, will be doing a Murphy-to-Manteo run leading up to the election on Tuesday, and he'll be in our very own Caldwell County on Friday! He and I will be at Piccolo's in downtown Lenoir Friday at 6:30 pm. Please come meet him and me as we head into the final stages of what I hope and expect, with your help, will be an historic election on Tuesday.
Please volunteer and contribute if you can!

Munger 'n' Me

A North Carolina gubernatorial candidate passed through Lenoir today! It was Libertarian candidate Dr. Mike Munger, who served on the Federal Trade Commission under President Ronald Reagan, and is chairman of Duke University's Political Science Department. He and I met up, as he gave me a few signs to put out for him. He'll be stopping through again on Friday for a campaign stop. I'll have more details as they come.

Early Voting
The first week-and-a-half of early voting is done. I've been to the Granite Falls Rec location once and the Caldwell County offices location three or four times. It's hard when you've got a full-time job! :)
In any event, if you make it to Early Voting, don't forget about me. The race for the 87th House is in the lower right on the front page of the ballot. For those of you who've already voted for me, THANKS! Oh, and please tell your friends to vote for me, too. I need and appreciate each and every vote.

Broyhill (the City vote on their handout is tonight; I'll be voting no)
Google, involuntary annexation, and eminent domain
School choice
The power of government
Illegal immigration

Ads
We're only two-and-a-half weeks away from Election Day. Starting Saturday the 18th, I'll be running two ads a day in the News-Topic, and I'll also have :30 and :60 radio spots running during morning and afternoon drive times on WKGX 1080 AM (bluegrass), and NewsTalk 1340 WJRI. Keep an ear out for them. As soon as I get the mp3 files, I'll try to post them here or at www.electTJRohr.com.
