The campaign is moving forward. Dino Rossi has a great organization across this state and the Veterans Coalition is just the newest, most exciting one. Pierce County and King County are both marching ahead with grassroots organization.

The goal of the Veterans for Dino Coalition is to organize military veterans and their families for Dino's campaign. We are finding tremendous energy from vets and even families of active duty military who are not technically veterans yet, but inspired by the camaraderie and energy behind Dino.

Military veterans comprise over 15% of the voting age population in our state. This is a huge constituency that tend to lean to the center-right on the political spectrum. Military members and veterans as well as their families typically share values of service to country, limited government and property rights.

The effort to organize the veteran and military vote for Dino has launched in Pierce, King and Benton Counties and is beginning to activate in Skagit, Thurston and Snohomish counties.

Look for a "Veterans for Dino" booth at the Steilacoom July 4th celebration and "Vets for Dino" activity at the South Sound Ronald Reagan Republican Club dinner on Thursday, May 22nd at the Great American Casino in Lakewood. Dino will be the featured speaker. Tickets (which include dinner) are $17 and there are just a few left. Click here for instructions on getting tickets!
