RPI Lincoln Dinner
Calling all Linn County Republicans:
Have you heard of the fantastic line-up of Republican superstars?
If you would like to attend the RPI Lincoln Dinner on May 16,
please contact chair@linncountygop.org for discounted tickets.
Discounted ticket price – $75.00per person (Regular ticket price – $100 per person)
Note: there are 10 tickets available at this price.
So how do the intend to handle the payment of $750 to RPI for the Table??
The last time I checked $750 was more the $500.
Are they going to have people make checks out to RPI so they can stay under their $500 limit?
Lastly there is the issue of paying for the bills other than those of the Central Committee,
Whispers on the Wind have brought to your humble chronicler the rumor that the LCRCC Chair Cindy Golding ordered the at the time Interim Treaser Jim Miller to cut a check for $200 to pay for an ad place in a flyer put out by another Republican Organization,
I will not mention the name of the other Organization, they are blemeless adn their good name does not need to be besmerched because of the incompetence and malfeasance of our Chair,
neither does the name of the restaraunt falsely accused of failure to pay a bill that in fact they did not authorise.
All these issues have been reported in previous posts,
If It's Not Written Down Show Us The Proof
Questions at this time which need answered are
Did the Body recieve a report of this action at the next scheduled meeting and if not WHY?
AND
Exactly how did the Linn County Central Committee become responsible for this debt in the first place,.
Despite the fact that the amount $200 is below the limit the Executive Committee may spend without prior approval,.
It is questionable as to whether they have the authority to use their spending power to pay the bills of other people,.
I hope someone asks these quesitons at the next Central Committee meeting.
