Jon Barrie for Senate

Hi Friends, Only one month until elections! For those of you that don't know, there isn't just a Republican running for US Senate, or a Democrat, but now Jon Barrie, our family fondly calls "Grandpa Jon" is officially on the ballot, running as an Independent. It's so exciting to have someone right in our neighborhood who has great Christian, conservative values.... To get on the ballot, his campaign needed 6,000 signatures. I was of course a part of the incredible “Barrie Brigade” - we collected over 10,000 names. It was a miracle – the first of many I witnessed. The kids and I had a blast collecting signatures. Then the Secretary of State’s office told us that the campaign was short 277 “valid” signatures! With only days remaining to challenge the decision, Jon fought back and won a spot on the ballot in a ruling by the New Mexico Supreme Court. It was another miracle. Anyone who meets Grandpa Jon, loves him, and appreciates the principles he stands for. But not enough people know who he is. We have 4 weeks to let voters know that they have another choice, and that there is a 3rd voice...Jon Barrie, the Independent candidate. This is why I’m asking for your help. First, visit Jon’s webpage and get to know him and why he’s a great spokesman for liberty and the Constitution. “Friend” him on Facebook. Then send the link to his page to theirs – simply ask them to read and decide for themselves. But please, be quick! The momentum is on Jon Barrie’s side, but don’t take my word about it: here’s what the Albuquerque Journal reported: “Third-party U.S. Senate candidate Jon Barrie says he’s in the race because no one else is talking strongly enough about limited government … recent polls commissioned by both major-party candidates found nearly one in 10 likely voters prefer Barrie.” That’s right, Democrat and Republican Party polls show Jon at 9% but his opponents are trying to buy the election: they’re spending $8 million! We don’t have to outspend the other candidates, just out work them! But your investment now, in the final weeks is urgent. What an exciting time to stand up for the Constitution by backing the real conservative for Senator. We can help restore and make stronger those values that make America a blessed nation. Take a minute, check out his website...and make a donation: $20 or $40 or $200 or $400. Every dollar goes a long way right now. One last thing: in the final weeks we need some pullers at the oars – volunteers. Just a couple of hours a week will help. Again sign up on the website and someone will contact you. If you would like to know more about why I love Grandpa Jon and believe so strongly in his platform, let’s talk! Visit:www.jon4senate.com Your friend, Andrea R. (rogersareblessed(at)gmail(dot)com
