FAIRMONT — Marion County Republicans will open their campaign headquarters at 201 Adams St. in downtown Fairmont on Monday, said Andrew Sabak.
And the county GOP’s annual Reagan Dinner is set for Oct. 16 at Muriale’s Restaurant and Banquet Center, said Sabak.
He is the chairman of the Marion County Republican Executive Committee.
“Everyone who is interested in any of the Republican candidates for office on the November ballot is welcome to drop in and see our campaign headquarters,” Sabak said.
The new office will be open from 3 p.m.-7 p.m. on Monday. Operating hours will gradually be expanded as election day draws nearer, Sabak indicated.
Former state Sen. Jay Wolfe, R-Harrison, will be the guest speaker at the Reagan dinner. Wolfe is running against U.S. Sen. Jay Rockefeller. Wolfe earlier ran against U.S. Sen. Robert C. Byrd in 1988 and against Rockefeller in 2002.
Wolfe served a four-year term in the West Virginia Senate from 1987 through 1990.
Sabak said Wolfe “earned a reputation as a no-nonsense conservative legislator who worked with Democrats and Republicans to get results for the good of his constituents.”
Other Republican candidates on the Nov. 4 general election ballot will also be given the opportunity to address the crowd at the dinner, Sabak said.
Tickets for the dinner are $30 per person and $50 per couple. Tickets are available at the campaign headquarters or by calling: Agnes DeRosa, at 367-0094, Penny Beafore, 677-0500; or Sabak at 612-4520.
