DPG Chair Election-Update 2

DCF 1.0What:  Special Election for the DPG Chairperson, who will be completing the unexpired term of the previous chair.

When: Saturday August 31, 2013

Time: Check in at noon, election proceedings begin at 1:00 pm. Yes 1:00-not 1:15 or 1:30… One O’clock people.

Location: Newnan Georgia- historic Wadsworth Auditorium located at 25 Jefferson Street, Newnan, GA 30263. Parking is nearby.

Your guess is as good as mine the final number of folks who will qualify to run, that due date isn’t till July 31st.  The street committee is reporting that some folks are having a tough time getting their signatures together and others are embroiled in lawsuits with Tea Party folks.

So far no one is planning on bringing  jello shots. The auditorium looks awfully nice, so lets leave those for a different venue and election.

    The Times-Herald is wasting no-time on getting it wrong :

    “Michael Smith has been serving as interim chairman.”
