It looks like the Gaston GOP won't let us just walk in and "hijack the poll" like we did on August 13. The notice on their website says "Gaston County Republicans" will vote. (This is a re-vote, now that Fred Thompson ...the establishment favorite... will have announced, by the time of the Sept poll.)
"The Gaston County N.C. Republican Party Executive Committee will hold its next meeting on Monday, September 10th, at Alfred & Charlie's Barbecue House, 815 South New Hope Road, Gastonia, 28054. The meeting is at 7:00 pm, following an optional buffet dinner ($10) at 6:15 pm. Our guest speaker will be Linda Daves from Charlotte, NC, chairwoman of the North Carolina Republican Party. Gaston County Republicans are also invited to take part in a "straw poll" of Republican candidates running for North Carolina governor, so come prepared to vote! "
The last straw poll was so informal that anyone could show up, even people from South Carolina.
So the question becomes... should we go anyway? Even if it's just a sign wave and to pass out literature?
Should we try and meet Gaston county residents next weekend, and get them interested in attending? Are there events in Gaston county where that would be possible?
