Arlington County Republican Committee Mark Kelly, Chairman

Campaign 2007

It's time to restore two-party government in Arlington!

Support McMENAMIN - WARREN - KELLY (County-wide)
and ALLEN (in the 45th)
Thank you for voting on November 6!

Arlington voters filled four offices in contested races in November 2007, including two open seats. This was an opportunity to break one-party rule in Arlington, and restore independent voices in County government and our legislative delegation.

We had four great GOP candidates in 2007, who worked hard and gained support around the County. While their results fell short of victory, they energized many volunteers and offer hope for future elections.

Please volunteer your time to help our party in 2008 and beyond! You can sign up online, or call 703-685-2488.
