MV Republicans Set Goals
Press Release

Mission Viejo, CA, May 9, 2010 – The Mission Viejo Republican Club (MVRC) steering group met on May 3 to discuss the organization’s progress since its inception two months ago. The group set a goal of having 100 charter members by the end of May.

Last month, MVRC members participated in the April 15 Mission Viejo Tea Party on the corners of La Paz and Marguerite. A crowd of 600 to 700 “Tea Partiers” lined the streets, holding protest signs and waving American flags. Club members attending said it was a patriotic tribute to American freedoms as well as a tax protest. MVRC supported the event’s sponsor, Saddleback Republican Assembly.

During May, MVRC is organizing precinct walks in Mission Viejo to “Get Out The Vote” (GOTV) for the June 8 Primary Election. A member of the new group, Joe Zambito, said he’s eager to get started. Zambito said, “I wondered how all of us would work together for competing candidates in the Primary. As it turns out, many of us are gravitating toward the same favorites.”

Zambito added, “With all the campaign literature arriving in the mail, voters are aware of the election, but I like the idea of person-to-person campaigning. I know our volunteers will be a big help in getting out the vote.”
