On Monday Jan 11th Jim Shaw and I spent some time with the Marietta 9-12 group. Pulling into the parking lot, I was excited to see that it was filled with cars.  Tonight the vet was going to be “vetted” by the 9-12 members with a rapid firing line of questions.  Glenn Newman and Becky Khun greeted us and the proceedings began promptly at 7.  I was impressed by the timeliness and organization of the group.  There were 84 members present; all with serious questions about what kind of representation I will provide.

Questions ranged from the Second Amendment to the definition of “conservative Republican,” and I was able to field them all swiftly and completely.  They seemed satisfied, and I thought I was preaching to the choir. Glenn called me the next day and said there would usually be derogatory comments aimed at “professional politicians” when they grilled campaigners, and there was none of that Monday night.  Good thing I’m not a “professional politician”! We should hear more from this 400-member group in a couple weeks.

If you would like to organize something like this question and answer session in your community, so that you can get to know me better, email me at info@drallenforcongress.com or clink on the information above to find out more about the Marietta 9-12 Project.
