The February meeting of the Republican Club of Oakmont will be held on Wednesday, Feb. 15, at 6:30 p.m. at the East Recreation Center. The speaker will be Clay Mitchell, a “proud conservative” who ran for the Windsor School Board last year and is currently serving on the Windsor Parks and Recreation Commission. He became the spokesman and Co-Chair of Repeal SMART after getting fed up with a lack of accountability and transparency from the SMART organization. He will be talking about local, state and national politics. His topics will include:
“Is Sonoma County really a One-Party County?” –Examine the current political power structure in Sonoma County and discuss opportunities to effectively advocate Republican principles “in our own backyard.”
“Big Government in a Small Town” – Sonoma County has retained its small-town feel despite substantial growth over the last few decades. Unfortunately, big government ideals have crept into our community, and bureaucracy abounds.
“David and Goliath” – Why is citizen access to the electoral process so difficult? Many criticize the influence of money in elections and wish for more grass-roots citizen involvement. Learn about this natural barrier from someone who has been there.
On Wednesday, Feb. 15, get all the answers. It’s a great way to meet others who are interested in bringing about positive change in our government. All Oakmont residents and their guests are welcome.
