What do Freeper's think of these various Tea Party Groups ( Nationally ) ? IMHO the local orgs are where the rubber meets the road....
With that said, what energies will be directed towards Tenn?....
“Of course, donating directly to the McDaniel campaign would be helpful also!”
Which a number of us have done.
This thread is about a handful of rallies in support of McDaniel.
I’m not sure what is happening in Tenn, perhaps a google search would be helpful for you to find out that information.
Tea Party Express always works with local tea party groups on their tours.
Yes I know, that’s great thanks again for supporting McDaniel.
Can you make it to any of the rallies?
$50 bump from California.
Directly to McDaniel’s Campaign.
Why not? Nobody to give it to here in Calif.

HATTIESBURG, Mississippi — A new poll from WPA Research shows conservative Mississippi state Sen. Chris McDaniel has shot up to an eight-point lead, outside the margin of error, over Sen. Thad Cochran (R-MS) a little over a week from the runoff election.
The poll of 500 likely GOP primary runoff voters has McDaniel leading Cochran 49 percent to 41 percent, with 10 percent undecided. McDaniel beat Cochran in the primary about two weeks ago, getting 1,300 more votes. The poll was conducted June 9 to June 10 and has a margin of error of 4.4 percent.
Now, heading into the runoff, WPA Opinion Research’s Ryan Steusloff wrote in a memo to interested parties about the new Mississippi polling days, “It is clear Chris McDaniel is well positioned to win on June 24th.”

In a sign of desperation and panic, the Cochran campaign and the interests that are aligned with him keeping office, are starting to sound a lot like Democrats and the mainstream media in calling Tea Party candidate Chris McDaniel "extreme" and "dangerous."
We have seen the same sad, tired strategy played out over and over again but it is sad when Republicans join the chorus and slander their own grassroots supporters and fellow Republicans.  We must not let such demeaning tactics work and must defend Tea Party candidate Chris McDaniel. We need your help to match the deep-pockets and influence of the Cochran establishment supporters.  We are sick and tired of the politicians that we elect going to Washington and then turning their back on the conservative base and the issues that are important to us.
Thad Cochran has shunned the Tea Party to his own peril and continues to ignore and discount us and we need to send a message as the rest of the world is watching. Please join us and make sure that Thad Cochran is the next out of touch career politician to receive the message that we will not be ignored. In order to rally conservatives we are holding rallies throughout Mississippi this weekend before the special election on June 24th. For rally details, click HERE

You’ll know Chris is winning if Haley Barbour starts following him with bluff and warnings. It’s almost like a McDaniel-Barbour race with THad Enough on the sidelines. I am hopeful for McD but would not be surprised if incumbency prevails again.
I’d wager that McDaniel wins by far more than 8.....any takers of that bet?
Haley has always worked against Reagan, when push comes to shove.....it was the same 40 years ago....
Overconfidence and arrogance were big factors in Cantor’s loss.
No matter how confident we are in a fairly large lead, the fact that when the dems/GOPe get desperate they will use any kind of fraud and deception to get their guy elected.
That’s one of the reasons TPX is doing all they can to keep awareness high about the importance of this race.
POLL NUMBERS: Cochran catches up for dead heat
With the election exactly one week away, polls are showing the race between conservative Chris McDaniel and establishment entrenched Thad Cochran is a virtual dead-heat. This is worrisome as polls last week had McDaniel up as much as 6-10 points.
The Cochran campaign has seen considerable momentum as of of late due to a D.C. establishment orchestrated onslaught of bad press carried out by the mainstream media on Chris McDaniel.
We must not let such demeaning tactics work and must defend Tea Party candidate Chris McDaniel! We need your help to match the deep-pockets and influence of the Cochran establishment supporters.
The election is one week away and represents one of the only opportunities for the Tea Party to oust a U.S. Senate Republican establishment career politician in Thad Cochran.
With the race too close to call, we are calling on all Tea Party members to help put conservative and D.C. outsider Chris McDaniel over the top. The whole nation is watching this race and we need to send a message!
In order to rally conservatives we are holding rallies throughout Mississippi this weekend before the special election on June 24th. For rally details, click HERE
URGENT: Thad Cochran is trying to steal this election! [Runoff voting 6-24]

URGENT: Thad Cochran is trying to steal this election!
Patriots,
This is an urgent call to action.
I wish it wasn't true, but it looks like Senator Thad Cochran supporters are trying to steal this election. The Clarion-Ledger is reporting that a POWERFUL DEMOCRATIC OPERATIVE inside Mississippi has been hired to go into Democratic communities and get those residents to vote for Cochran. We cannot let this blatant effort to steal the election go unanswered!
J. Christian Adams, a former Civil Rights Division attorney at the Department of Justice with experience litigating election law cases in Mississippi, said a law there prevents people from voting in the primary for candidates they don't plan to support in the general election.
Adams is now a high-profile author and news commentator for conservative outlet PJ Media. He resigned his position at the U.S. Department of Justice in 2010 over how the Obama administration treated a famous case against the New Black Panther Party for alleged voter intimidation at the polls in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The Mississippi law Adams cites, MS Code 23-15-575, states: “No person shall be eligible to participate in any primary election unless he intends to support the nominations made in which he participates.”
“Mississippi law prohibits Democrats from voting in a Republican primary,” Adams said in an emailed statement. “Obviously poll workers aren’t mind readers. But if someone doesn’t intend to support the nominee in November, then that person isn’t allowed to vote in the Republican primary.”
In addition, the state Democratic Party sued Gov. Haley Barbour and others in the mid-2000s regarding just that matter—prompting United States District Judge W. Allen Pepper to write in a June 8, 2007, opinion that it is the responsibility and right of the political party holding a primary election to ensure that the elections are fair and legal. In the case of a Republican primary and runoff, only Republicans vote, and in the case of a Democrat primary and runoff, only Democrats vote—and it is the role of the political parties to ensure that process is handled correctly.
The Supreme Court determined in a 2005 case that the First Amendment “protects the right of political parties to associate with fellow members and disassociate with non-members,” Judge Pepper wrote in his opinion. So technically it’s the party’s responsibility—i.e., in this case, state GOP chairman Joe Nosef’s responsibility—to protect GOP voters’ First Amendment rights by working to keep Democrats from voting in the GOP primary runoff.
Catherine Engelbrecht, the head of national conservative election integrity organization True the Vote, told Breitbart News she thinks Nosef must step up and enforce these laws. Engelbrecht and her organization are in Mississippi right now, preparing for the election with poll watchers from around the country to work to prevent any shenanigans on election day next week.
“Chairman Nosef must understand that this matter is not playing out in an echo chamber; people across the country are now suspicious...

I wish it wasn't true, but Senator Thad Cochran supporters are trying to steal this election. We cannot let this blatant effort to steal the election go unanswered! We cannot let the slick Washingtn, D.C. Republican operatives and the Democrats get away with this and need your immediate support.
LA once had a rule that one pledged himself to vote Democrat in a general election if he voted in a Democrat primary. Such rules or laws are unenforceable.
