We the People of Johnson County Missouri, Monday, January 8, 2024 Mock Caucus Tonight is CANCELLED. Other Opportunities: Read On.
Hi folks!
By now you’ve either seen that the Mock Caucus tonight was cancelled, decided on your own wisdom to stay home or (hopefully not…) have ventured out into the snow and cold, possibly got stuck in a drift, and finally realized it has been cancelled.
I REALLY hope it was not the last choice!
I’ve heard about additional options for learning about and/or enacting a Mock Caucus. I’ll fill you in via chronological order of events.
This Saturday:
Brandon Phelps and Amy Castro let me know there is a Mock Caucus being enacted this Saturday. Info below:
Johnson County Republicans (JCRCC fb Link)
For those interested: join us on Saturday, January 13th at the Pettis County Courthouse at 10:00 am for a Mock Caucus Training. (Please note this is a Mock Caucus Training only, no other topics will be discussed).
The Pettis County Courthouse is located at 415 S Ohio Ave, Sedalia. There is an elevator available for those who might need it.
At this time Johnson County RCC is taking advantage and working with surrounding counties for training opportunities. We are also taking advantage of our County Clerk's caucus experience. No mock caucus is scheduled in Johnson County at this time. Please attend the training on Saturday if you are interested.
Reminder: Republican Caucus will be Saturday, March 2nd at the Johnson County Fairgrounds at 10:00 am. You do NOT need to attend a Mock Caucus to attend the actual Caucus. Johnson County Central Committee will host the Republican Caucus.
Johnson County Republican Women (JCMRWC link)
Johnson County Republican Women will be hosting a Sweet Treats Auction as a fundraiser for our club!
Save the Date - February 12th @ 5:30p.m. at RISE Cafe
We hope that you will join us! RISE Cafe will be serving dinner beginning at 5:30pm and we will begin the live auction at 6pm.
Cost to eat dinner will be $14 similar to our normal meetings.
After completion of the auction, we will have Diane Thompson, County Clerk and Johnson County Republican Central Committee Executive Board members sharing information about the March Caucus!
If you are a current Republican Woman, please RSVP if you will attend on this post, via e-mail to JCRW2023@gmail.com or to Stormy Chadbourne Taylor
Please RSVP by Feb 1st if you will be eating dinner and what kind of dessert you will be bringing.
I contacted Alexandra (Alex) King to see if NON-members of Republican Women could attend, and she assured me they could. If you plan to eat dinner at the RISE Cafe you absolutely must rsvp by February 1. If you don’t plan to eat dinner, no rsvp is necessary.
In addition, February 12th is the birthday of TWO adamant Republicans:
Abraham Lincoln
Rachel Gifford 😃😄 (Mr. Lincoln, however, was born a short time before me!)
Also on Monday, February 12, Cass County will have the Mock Caucus that was cancelled on Monday, January 8 (today!) due to weather.
Date: Monday, Feb. 12

Location: Real Life Assembly of God Church 180 W. Broadway Street Peculiar MO
Also, Presidential Caucus will be discussed at Johnson County Republican Central Committee Meeting:

Meeting Agenda and items to discuss:
Call to order
Pledge of Allegiance
Roll call

Treasurer’s report
Recognize elected officials
Recognize and hear from Republican Woman
Discuss Candidate Vetting

Old business

Adjourn
And finally -
I’m working to get someone from MOGOP to help us do a Mock Caucus at our February 19 We the People of Johnson County Missouri meeting!
Don’t hold your breath and don’t skip any of the above events depending on this to happen, as I have no confirmation as yet!
And finally…AGAIN!
Some thoughts for a Monday that starts a busy week:
Phil 4:6-7 Do NOT be anxious about anything, BUT in everything by prayer and petition (a serious request of importance), with THANKSGIVING, let your requests be made known to God. (TALK with God about your concerns and needs. WHY? You may ask. BECAUSE…..see next verse.)
7) And the PEACE that passes ALL understanding will GUARD your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus our Lord. (I can definitely USE that kind of Peace!)
THAT’S WHY!!!
Love you guys!
Definitely SHARE this via fb, email, however you share best. We need to know how to do Caucus.
