Womack<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>to that \u201cbad list\u201d as they have <u>willingly allowed themselves<\/u> to be recruited to run for the Cleveland County School Board for the primary purpose of defeating Republican Incumbent School Board Member Danny Blanton in the 2022 Republican Primary Election. And a Secondary purpose of supporting School Board Chairman Robert \u201cLuke\u201d Queen in his unsavory role of destroying the school board:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>transparency,<\/li>\n<li>truth,<\/li>\n<li>fiduciary responsibility<\/li>\n<li>public trust<\/li>\n<li>as well as depriving children of proper education at Cleveland County Schools<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Folks, I have written numerous articles over the past year (+) describing the bad acts of this new School Board Republican majority led by Chairman Robert \u201cLuke\u201d Queen. Every word written in those previous articles as well as in this article is based on events that I have personally witnessed at school board meetings and as reported to me personally by trusted sources and evaluated through the lens of my own \u201cgood faith\u201d conclusions. NONE, and I repeat <strong><b>NONE,<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0of the content of my previous articles <u>have ever been denied by any one of those previously named<\/u>. And I sent each of them an advanced copy of the article prior to it being published.<\/p>\n<p>NOW, let\u2019s advance to some bad acts from this crowd that has just happened over the past several DAYS!!!<\/p>\n<p>This past Saturday (March 26, 2022) the Cleveland County Republican Party Convention was held. This Convention is held to hear speakers and to elect delegates to the Regional, State, and National Republican Conventions. In the not-so-distant past, Cleveland County Republican Meetings and Conventions could be \u201cheld in a phone booth.\u201d A figure of speech well enough known to those of us old enough to remember phone booths.<\/p>\n<p>At this past Saturday\u2019s Convention, near the end and after School Board Republican Candidates Danny Blanton, Ronnie Grigg (who was recruited by the Rogue Republicans to run against Danny Blanton as a way to defeat Blanton in the 2022 Republican Primary Elections-but refused to take part in such a vile act by the Rogue Republicans) and Annette Fain had left the premises, CCS School Board Chairman Robert \u201cLuke\u201d Queen and a person identified to me as CCS School Board Attorney Jonathon Sink began to pass out campaign flyers. Before sundown, that very day a cell phone picture of that Flyer was in my computer inbox. I will attach a copy of the flyer at the end of this article.<\/p>\n<p>The flyer stated: <strong><b>Cleveland County Board of Education Republican Primary <\/b><\/strong>and listed the seven candidates that are running for the four vacancies.<\/p>\n<p>The Flyer stated <strong><u><b>VOTE for Four<\/b><\/u><\/strong><strong><b>. <\/b><\/strong>The names of Dale Riviere, Walter Scott Spurling, Glenda W. Womack, and Aaron Bridges were in <strong><b>BOLD<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0and <u>UNDERLINED<\/u>. The names of Annette Fain, Ronnie Grigg, and Danny Blanton were NOT bolded or underlined.<\/p>\n<p>The very instant I saw this picture I realized three things: (besides the fact that Dennis Bailey, Kevin Whisnant, David Allen, and perhaps others were also involved in this flyer being printed and distributed at the Cleveland County Republican Party Convention.)<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The Flyer did NOT have the legally (North Carolina State Election Law) mandated statement regarding <u>who paid for this political advertisement<\/u>. Everybody at that convention that received this flyer should have known this flyer that was being distributed to the public was illegal. As for me, I will file a <strong><b>formal complaint to<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0the Cleveland County and NC State Board of Elections early this coming week to report Luke Queen\u2019s part in this illegal act. Perhaps also for Attorney Jonathon Sink and the others.<\/li>\n<li>Sink, being an attorney and willfully involved in an illegal act, may find himself in trouble with the North Carolina State Bar.<\/li>\n<li><b><\/b><strong><b>My recommendation for the 2022 School Board Primary Election will be Danny Blanton, Ronnie Grigg, and Annette Fain.<\/b><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Also, there was another matter arising at the March 26, 2022, Cleveland County Republican Party Convention. A devious, dirty, deceptive, corrupt, and mean-spirited act was committed. Totally different, but may be related, to the Rogue Republicans&#8217; efforts to get rid of Danny Blanton and any other Republicans that won\u2019t kiss their collective asses.<\/p>\n<p>Marge Hooper, former President of the Republican Women of Cleveland County (WeRCC). holder of many other women Republican credentials and regular attendee to every Republican Conventions at the local, Regional, State and National levels, noticed that <u>her NAME had been left off a list names<\/u>\u00a0that was necessary for her to continue to be a delegate at future Conventions.<\/p>\n<p>That list of names was for the attendees at the 2022 Cleveland County Republican Convention. And, according to Republican Party Rules, for a person to be selected as a delegate to the Regional, State and National Conventions, they had to first be an attendee to the LOCAL Republican Party Convention. <u>Marge immediately smelled a rat. <\/u>She did NOT believe, and rightly so, that this was some kind of inadvertent omittance, clerical error, typo or any other kind of honest mistake. Marge believed that this was a devious, deceptive, corrupt and mean-spirited dirty trick perpetrated by none other than self-proclaimed Republican Guru Dennis Bailey and his sycophants. Especially since Mr. Bailey was and is well known for his devious, deceptive, corrupt and mean-spirited dirty tricks. Especially since Dennis Bailey has made the statements that <strong><b>\u201cOnly Jesus Crist and Dennis Bailey decides which Republicans get elected in Cleveland County.\u201d<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Even though Dennis Bailey couldn\u2019t get himself re-elected to the Shelby City Council. Defeated by the weakest of Democrats, Violet Arth Dukes.<\/p>\n<p>Marge knew that this list of names, with her name omitted, would cause her problems at the next level Republican Party Convention. Remembering the dirty tricks pulled by Dennis Bailey, Wes Westmoreland, Robert \u201cLuke\u201d Queen, Ted Alexander and others to get Robert Queen re-nominated to the Cleveland Community College after the Commissioners refused to re-nominate him. Causing irreparable damage to the relationship between the Community College Board of Trustees, Cleveland County School Board and the Commissioners. Probably the major reason that Commissioner Johnny Hutchins stepped down from the CCC BoTs and Commissioner Chairman Kevin Gordon stepped in to take his place. The repercussions of that will soon become obvious.<\/p>\n<p>So, according to reports, Marge Hooper confronted Dennis Bailey and then Cleveland County Republican Party President David Allen with the omission of her name as attending the 2022 Cleveland County Republican Party Convention-right there and right then at the end of the Convention. Whether or not that list is or will be corrected is still unknown. All I can say right now is this message to Marge Hooper, <strong><b>\u201cYou go, girl!!!
