UVA College Republicans: Updates & Upcoming Events




With the election now just nine days away, the Hoos have been hard at work fighting for our majorities! In just over a week, the future of our beloved Commonwealth will be decided, so we're doing everything we can to support our great candidates!


Updates

Call Night


Monday, we changed things up a little and co-hosted a call/text night with Hoos for Life, the leading pro-life group on Grounds. We texted nearly 40,000 voters asking them to vote for pro-life candidates and reminders to vote will automatically be sent out on election day to those who responded! There's no doubt that one of the biggest issues of this election will be the protection of life, so we were happy to help out this worthy cause!



Deployments


Over the weekend, CRs chapters from across the Commonwealth deployed to Virginia Beach to knock doors for Jen Kiggans and Chris Stolle. Everyone had a great time talking to voters (of course the beach was nice too) and discovered that there's a ton of enthusiasm for Jen and Chris!



Another group headed to the 66th district to knock for Speaker Kirk Cox! Voters there are ready to send the Speaker back to Richmond!


Upcoming Events

CRs Host Emily Jashinsky 


This Tuesday, we'll be hosting Emily Jashinsky. Emily is a conservative commentator for the Washington Examiner, the former spokeswoman of YAF, and is a frequent guest on Fox News! The meeting will be in Monroe Hall, room 124 at 7PM on Tuesday. As usual, all are invited to attend. Parking is available for $1/hour at the UVA Bookstore (please don't hesitate to reach out to me if you have any further questions). Hope to see you there!



Final Deployment


This weekend, we'll be deploying for the last time before the election. One group will be heading to the 73rd House District to knock for Mary Margaret Kastelberg and another to the 27th for Delegate Roxann Robinson. Wish us luck!


That's all we have for you now! We strongly encourage everyone to get involved in any way you can to help push our candidates across the finish line (reach out to your local committees to see what you can do or feel free to reach out to me and I can put you in touch with someone - it's never too late to make a difference!).
