Fayetteville, GA — Yesterday, the West GA Republican Assembly chapter held a meeting to re-charter and renamed itself the “3rd Congressional District Georgia Republican Assembly! It remains a multi-county regional chapter including Carroll, Coweta, Douglas, Fayette, Haralson, Harris, Heard, Henry, Lamar, Meriwether, Muscogee, Pike, Spalding, Troup, and Upson Counties.
After voting to adopt new chapter bylaws, Lisa Pierce from Upson County was elected the chapter Chairwoman and Linda Menk from Coweta County was elected the new chapter President along with other chapter officers. Also elected were Nancy Holland as the 1st Vice President, Julie Stone as the 2nd Vice President, Sharlene Alexander as the 3rd Vice President, and Angela Bean as the Secretary.
“We will be holding local in-person meetings now!” said Lisa Pierce. Leaders of the new chapter said they would seek to rotate the location of the chapter meetings around the district to encourage more participation from GRA members in the district. Pierce currently serves as the Upson County GOP Chairwoman and previously ran for 1st Vice Chair of the GAGOP.
Linda Menk is a long time activist and patriot fighter who previously served on the Coweta County School Board. GRA members from the 3rd District are excited about their new chapter’s potential. “Everything seems impossible until you try,” said Menk.
