Bring a blanket, chair or dish to share. RVSP to info@patonforcongress.com or 395-2024   National Review: Paton "strong GOP candidate" Also, check out this story from the National Review, naming Gabrielle Giffords one of the most vulnerable incumbents in the nation and calling Jonathan Paton a "strong GOP candidate." "Representing a district on the Mexican border, she once bashed the Minutemen; now she calls for deploying National Guard troops to stop unlawful border crossings. She's wavered on the state's tough new illegal-immigration laws. She'll face a strong GOP candidate in Jonathan Paton." http://article.nationalreview.com/433360/house-races-in-2010/jim-geraghty?page=3 PAID FOR BY JONATHAN PATON FOR CONGRESS

Craig Smith for LD 25

I'm asking for your help to get a friend of mine, Craig Smith, on the August primary election ballot.  He wants to compete to be the Republican nominee for Arizona Senate for LD25.   He needs about 500 signatures from around the district (Legislative District 25 includes Marana) to achieve that.  Republicans, Independents and persons registered "Party Not Designated" may sign his nominating petition.

If successful in August (against other Republicans) he will compete in November for the Arizona Senate seat now held by Democrat Manny Alvarez.

Your signature on Craig Smith's nominating petition doesn't commit you to support him when you vote in August, or in the November general election (though certainly we hope that you will).

It simply helps to insure that Craig gets on the ballot and that we all have more choices when election time comes.

Craig Smith is not your ordinary Republican, nor an ordinary politician.  He's not a young "city-slicker" looking for a career in politics.  He's a retired U.S. Army Master Sargent with a Masters Degree in Public Administration.

Craig is genuine, honest and reasonable.  Born in Nogales, AZ, he's a gringo that speaks Spanish.  He's the former Director of Community Development in Bisbee.  He's been married 41 years and currently serves on the Huachuca City town council.

Craig is a libertarian-Republican.  A true believer in smaller government, lower taxes and more freedom.  He believes in the rule of law, not personal whims, but he's aware that laws are sometimes poorly crafted and unevenly applied. 

When Craig Smith takes the Oath of Office swearing to uphold the Constitutions of both the United States and Arizona he means it.

We'll have a fancier website up soon, but for now the basics are at http://www.electcraigsmith.org

There will be time to explain more later - to meet with you personally, answer your questions and listen to your ideas.  Right now we need your help - we need your signature.

A Marana (NW Republicans) friend is helping to collect signatures and can meet with you this week to obtain your signature on Craig's behalf.

Thanks for your consideration.  If you are inclined to sign the petition now, or if you have more questions, please contact me by phone or e-mail.
