PB Christian Coalition Forum


Virginia Brooks, Chairman of the PB Christian Coalition opened the meeting at the Lantana Library. This was my first time there. The place is huge and it was extremely busy. John Brooks led us in prayer and thanked all those running for "putting their life on the line for running for office in Lake Worth." Truer words could not have been spoken. Politics in Lake Worth is vicious.

The above candidates showed up and the venue was really informal. They got to talk about anything and some questions were asked from the audience...our utilities and beach were of major concern. Javier came late from the N.O.W. forum and they gave him 5 minutes to speak.

Tami Donnally candidate for Florida House District 85 spoke briefly and told us why she decided to run saying that she believes in America. "We the people is a phrase that seems lost in today's government," she said. A former school principal married to a minister, she wants to give back. If she wins her primary, she will be running against Joe Abruzzo.

Curt Price, running for Congress, District 19, announced that Robert Wexler was resigning. He is running as a Republican in that District so the dynamics of that race will now be very different. Curt is a former policeman with a BA in Criminal Justice, has a Master of Science degree in Business Administration and currently a business owner.

The Christian Coalition will soon be changing its name to the Palm Beach Faith and Freedom Coalition.
