I have some REALLY good news to report!
Voters in the Oxford County town of South Paris recalled two school board members in Tuesday’s special election!
58% of voters cast ballots to boot two board members who were pushing a dangerous and demented “gender identity” policy aimed at driving a wedge between parents and their children.
Maine First Project took on the big teachers’ union’s well-oiled campaign machine, and thanks to our supporters, won a big victory for sanity, parental rights, family values!
The team at Maine First Project intends to build on the momentum of this victory — by applying our proven success in campaigns across the state this year.
That success can only be replicated with a grassroots army of patriots trained in the best practices to move the political needle. And Maine First Project’s next FREE activist training seminar is Saturday, January 28th, in Gray.
If you’re interested in joining like-minded patriots for activist training focused on winning local elections, let me know right away, as seats have filled quickly in the past!
This event is by invitation only, so shoot me an email if you want an invite. We require a fully refundable $10 deposit to reserve your seat. You can reach me at larrylockman22@gmail.com.
2023 will be a very busy year for Maine First Project, channeling the righteous anger of parents and grandparents who are appalled at the depravity of what passes for K-12 education in Maine.
At our Gray training session on January 28th, we will drill down into what needs to be done to begin cleaning up the mess Leftists have made of our public schools.
In the South Paris recall campaign, we had to contend with the expected hostile Fake News coverage — which we’re used to. We made an end-run around the propaganda mills with two waves of “YES ON RECALL” mailers, as well as a half-page ad in the local weekly, and automated phone calls and text messages on the eve of the vote and on Election Day.
Our so-called “tolerant Left” opponents defaced “YES ON RECALL” lawn signs and encouraged others to remove signs that were on public rights-of-way — which, I might add, is a criminal offense.
As Election Day approached, the gender-bender radicals at the deep-pocketed non-profit EqualiityMaine launched a GOTV (Get Out the Vote) campaign which may have backfired:
And EqualityMaine wasn’t alone in spending to push dangerous San Francisco values in rural Maine schools.
The teachers’ unions sent mailers and reached out to staff throughout the district, urging them to support the school board members who voted for a grooming policy that would have allowed biological boys to use girls’ restrooms and locker rooms — as well as compete in girls’ sports. The proposed policy not only encouraged but taught students how to lie to their parents.
The Maine First team and our supporters worked hard to get the truth out about what was happening in South Paris. Moms and Dads, grandmas and grandpas showed up in force and stood up for Maine students!
This is a huge victory for Maine and a massive blow to the lunatic-fringe groomers turning government-run schools into woke indoctrination mills.
We must strike while the iron is hot, and double down to build on this grassroots momentum!
That’s why I’m hoping you’ll join Maine First Project’s expert team on Saturday, January 28th, in Gray. You’ll join other Maine Patriots in our grassroots army learning when, where, and how to fight the political and cultural battles needed to restore Maine to The Way Life Should Be.
To register for our FREE activist training in Gary at the end of the month, simply shoot me an e-mail expressing your interest. There will be a $10 deposit required to reserve your seat — but it will be FULLY REFUNDED at the seminar. We don’t want a few dollars to get in the way of adding you to the ranks of our well-trained army of Maine patriots who are winning the fight for Maine’s future one ballot at a time.
Make no mistake my friends, this was a big win, but we have a long way to go. Maine is a blue state — but it doesn’t have to be.
Together, we will band together for the long haul and turn Maine from blue to purple to red. Our children and grandchildren are counting on it!
Sincerely,
Hon. Lawrence Lockman
