In 2016, Venezuela had 30.7 million people but became engulfed in political and economic crises, which led to more than 7.7 million people leaving the country. How did this oil-rich country, which used to be the third-richest country in the hemisphere, get into so much trouble? In the recent Presidential election, Venezuela’s opposition party alleges massive government corruption. It has been widely reported that Maduro had used fraud and physical force to retain power when all polls showed the opposition party and candidate had won. There are reports of ballot boxes being seized and burned. 

Further, as Red State reported today, "Kamala Harris and Joe Biden had different ideas. While the press will no doubt bury the story, the current administration was at the center of this fraudulent election, having handed Maduro sanctions relief in exchange for "free and fair elections."  That sounds like a great deal in exchange for only a hollow promise. Just two weeks before the elections, Kamala and Joe throw Maduro a bone and a boatload of economic benefits. Figures, I guess; leftists supporting leftists.

Vice President Kamala Harris is being anointed as the Democrat Presidential Candidate after President Joe Biden’s awkward exit from the race just weeks before the Democrat National Committee Convention. More accurately, Democrat elites and the left-wing media are attempting to sell her to Democrat voters as the savior of the Democrat Party. This is not a subtle sell, it is very heavy handed. In Democrat-think, such decisions are too important to be left to rank-and-file Democrat voters or even a truly open convention of delegates; a very small group of elites must step in and stage-manage everything for the "good of the Party." It is a coronation.

As best as I can figure, it was a decision that appears to be driven by the iconic Magic 8 Ball toy. Primary votes don’t count, only the will of some Democrat elites who asked the Magic 8 Ball, “Who should we nominate?” Shook up the 8 Ball and flipped it over to read, “Answer Unclear. Try Kamala.”

There has never been a more critical time for us to unite. Unite as a country and more importantly, unite as Republicans. The stakes are too high to do anything less. The importance of the November election is so high that we have to unite to “close the deal,” not only with the Presidency but in House and Senate elections as well. Sure, current events (the debate, polling, Biden’s “big boy” press conference, the assassination attempt, the Judge Cannon ruling, the RNC National Convention) have created be the strongest trail wind going into the final phase of a Presidential election in living memory. However, we cannot merely be reactive to current events and trust only to chance to get the results we want. We MUST BE PROACTIVE and work to become fully united. United, we can potentially win the federal elections but also protect Texas and even possibly extend the coat tails of the federal elections to the county level.

I came into the Chairmanship in August 2021 – in the aftermath of the failed 2020 Presidential election. To say that the Dallas County Republican Party was ready for a restart is an understatement that few can appreciate.

The Party was all but obsolete. In less than three years, with the blessing of an amazing staff and an army of dedicated and resilient volunteers, we have built a lasting legacy of which to be proud.

And it was a landslide. Saturday night, conservative candidate Jonathan Reaves won his runoff against Democrat Kellie McKee 56.48% to 43.52%, turning a seat on the Rowlett City Council that was blue to red! We could not be prouder of Reaves. In a crowded field, Reaves came in second in the special election on November 7th. But that put him into a runoff in a head-to-head race with McKee.

The Dallas County Republican Party weighed in heavily on the Rowlett special election, utilizing a strong messaging campaign to get voters out for Reaves. The DCRP used its newly developed data to message conservatives throughout Rowlett, letting them know about the runoff and reminding them to get out and vote for Reaves.  He did an excellent job of communicating his conservative values to those who shared them and inspired his fellow voters to get to the polls! There are no such things as non-partisan elections.
