Locally, we won all races and our State Representative seat, District 74. This success would not have been possible without your generous support!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We cannot, however, rest on our past successes, which brings us to the purpose of this letter. It is the annual time of year that we once again start the task of raising money. We MUST rebuild our war chest and prepare for 2026. We strive to have one of the best funded political operations in Southwest Indiana. We continue to have a strong presence in the community. Money is given directly to our opposed candidates, we run ads on several radio stations, send out several direct mail pieces and run ads in both local newspapers. Elected Republicans were also out in full swing working for those on the ballot. Party officials were busy orchestrating fundraisers and setting up for events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, we need your continued support so we can hold our annual events, donate to local organizations, and prepare for campaigns down the road. I am proud and humbled by the support I have received as your County Chairman over the last twelve years. I am especially proud of the progress we have made! But there is still work to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I ask that you please consider joining or renewing your membership in the Pachyderm Club. In the Pachyderm Club you can receive different benefits at different levels of giving. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please save the date of our Lincoln-Reagan Dinner. Saturday, March 29th at Santa\u2019s Lodge in the Celebration Room. It\u2019s sure to be a great event with our new Lieutenant Governor, Micah Beckwith and our new 8th district congressman, Mark Messmer keynoting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-yellow-background-color has-background\"><a href=\"https:\/\/spencercountygop.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/2025-Pachyderm-Levels.pdf\"><strong>Here is a link to the Contribution form that shows the levels and benefits of each respective level.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is imperative that we provide the best campaign infrastructure for our candidates that we possibly can.
