Estero counts, and the candidates are coming to town. Mark your calendars
Curt Clawson #FL19 Unity Effort Bonita Springs – Today the Curt Clawson campaign announced that Lee County Sheriff Mike Scott would lead an effort to bring new supporters into the campaign who either stayed neutral in the Primary or supported other candidates.
Sheriff Scott released the following statement: “I stayed neutral in the Primary out of respect for other candidates and because the campaign became so divisive that the community needed someone to help bring people together when the Primary was over. I admire Curt Clawson for running a phenomenal campaign that earned the overwhelming support of our community here in Southwest Florida. He stayed focused on the issues such as his Economic Growth Plan and voters rewarded him with their votes. Last night in his speech he very eloquently described the importance of unifying Southwest Florida after a very divisive Primary. He is exactly right. Now is the time for the community to support Curt as our next Congressman. I urge other Republicans to get behind Curt both in the upcoming Special General Election as well as the August Primary for the following term. I will be contacting members of the community who either stayed neutral or supported other candidates and will be asking them to join me on the Clawson team as part of the #FL19 Unity effort.” Curt Clawson released the following statement: “I have long admired Sheriff Scott as a key leader of Southwest Florida and appreciate that he is accepting this role in bringing our community together with the #FL19 Unity effort,” said Curt Clawson. “I thank him for his help and support and look forward to working with him to unite Southwest Florida” Curt Clawson won the Republican Primary for the Special Election on April 22nd with 38.2% of the vote. He will face April Freeman in the General Election on June 24th. ### It was another perfect "10" evening, with blue skys, perfect temps, and great food. Lizbeth's fund raiser was well attended, at a private home in Naples, with a group of approx. 100 supporters. Sarah Palin reiterated, "district 19th is the news a lot, we hear it all the way to Alaska, the status quo has got to go!" She called Lizbeth a "mama grizzly", who will stand to protect the next generation". Both Lizbeth & Sarah served all the guests a menu of pulled port and beans.
Thank you so much to those of you who have helped dispel the mistruths that have been said about me by the other candidates in this race.
Today a number of Tea Party leaders sent a letter to Sarah Palin regarding her support for the candidate who has been attacking me on the airwaves. Please read this note from founding members of several local Tea Party and 9 12 groups to Gov. Palin. The lies that have been told by Lizbeth Benacquisto have been proven false by multiple media organizations. Please read the fact checking article by the News Press or watch the video from NBC 2. Thanks, Curt Dear Friend & Supporter,
You are receiving this email because you have indicated interest or support in my campaign. For that, I thank you sincerely. You have most likely heard a great deal of negative messaging in both TV and radio ads, coming from three of the Republican candidates. I am committed to maintaining a positive campaign and to focus exclusively on issues and sharing my plan for action. This is strength and has been well received at events and public forums. Last week there were three straw polls. In the public polls I finished 3rd and 2nd, and on Joe Whitehead’s radio show I placed 1st. As the true grassroots candidate, my funding comes directly from voters, not special interest, or deep pockets. I have received national endorsements/recognition from the following so far:
There are still a number of public forums scheduled. The next is tomorrow Saturday (March 29th) at the Riverside Church in Ft Myers, starting promptly at 2pm.
