L-R: Republicans on March Primary 2008 ballot, Bexar County Sheriff candidate Chris Milam, Judge Juanita Vasquez-Gardner, Judge Laura Parker, Judge David BerchelmanDear Fellow Republicans:
Please come to this year’s Petition Signing Party on Tuesday, October 23rd, and bring all your Republican friends and neighbors. We need at least 750 people to come and sign the candidates’ petitions. Because we know some of you prefer not to drive at night, we are starting early -- at 1 p.m. -- so you can come by, sign up, enjoy the party, and still get home before the rush hour traffic clogs the roads. We’ll be at Aggie Park , 6205 West Avenue at NW Loop 410, from 1 p.m. until 8 p.m., so there is plenty of time for everyone to participate.
Candidates for judicial offices in Bexar County , from Justice of the Peace to 4th Court of Appeals, must file a petition containing at least 250 signatures of qualified voters just to get on the 2008 Primary ballot.
Court of Appeals, District Court and County Court at Law judges must also pay a $2,500 filing fee. However, if they can get 500 signatures, the filing fee can be waived. A filing fee of $2,500 versus 500 signatures makes each signature worth a $5 savings.
Candidates for State Supreme Court Justice and State Court of Criminal Appeals Judge must obtain at east 50 signatures from each of the 14 judicial districts across Texas . They will be present, so please attend and meet your elected officials.
Just coming to the free party and signing all of our candidates' petitions would be equivalent to making a significant campaign contribution, but it won’t cost you anything. You can truly help our candidates and enjoy a great party with your fellow Republicans as we gear up for the historic election year of 2008 with so many important offices on the ballot.
All of the candidates listed will have a table and you can just walk down the line and sign all of the petitions at once and then you won’t have to worry about keeping track of whose you have or haven’t signed. And then enjoy the food and fun.
I look forward to seeing all of you on October 23rd!
Sincerely,
Richard E. Langlois
Republican Party Bexar County Chairman
PS: Your voter registration number is one of the items needed on the petition, so please remember to bring your voter registration card with you.
