October President's Message
As we are racing toward November 8, we must each of us be doing everything within our power to ensure that we elect every Republican on the ballot. If we are able to accomplish this, we have an opportunity to cut off funding and/or slow down implementation for much of what is happening in the Joe Biden Administration and at our southern border.
We must have Mark Finchem as our Secretary of State to ensure that our future elections will be legal and fair for all. Arizona does not have a Lt. Governor position so currently if the governor leaves office during their term, the Secretary of State ascends to Governor. Mark Finchem's opponent is Adrian Fontes, the person responsible for the 2020 election disaster in Maricopa County. We definitely do not want him as our next governor should Kari Lake leave her office before the end of her term.
If you are able to attend a rally or event with one or more of the candidates speaking, please go out and support them. Donate whatever you are able to any or all of the Arizona candidates and help us win each office and make Arizona truly RED.
If you have not yet signed up to be a poll worker or poll watcher for the upcoming November general election, please do so as soon as possible. It is imperative that our members are doing our part to ensure the integrity of our election.
Six of our members attended the AzFRW BOD meeting in Chandler, on September 15-17. The conference was well attended by members from all but two clubs. Speakers included candidates, a panel of four speakers, discussing state ballot issues
- We learned that ballot issues being with 1 are constitutional amendments.
- Issues beginning with 2 are citizens measures.
- Those beginning with 3 are matters referred by the legislature.
George Khalaf, President, Data Orbital & Managing Partner, The Resolute Group spoke about "The Red Wave" November Predictions. He believes that Arizona will have at least six Republican congressional representatives and possibly seven following the election. This will be up from the current four Republican congressional representatives. He believes Kari Lake will be elected.
AzFRW now has 3,163 members, up 8% from a year earlier. AzFRW also has 29 member clubs. QC – STV member is 10th of 29. Nearly all clubs have grown in size in 2022. Thank you to our members for our club's growth from 22 initial membership to the current 93 members.

Come out on October 11 to help our club celebrate our second birthday as of October 5, 2022. We will have cake and balloons to celebrate before the meeting begins.
