Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell, a vice presidential contender, will speak at the Warren County Republican Party’s annual Lincoln-Reagan Dinner Friday, Feb. 17 at the Manor House in Mason.
McDonnell, who serves as head of the Republican Governor’s Association, has been often mentioned as a possible running mate for GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney.
“We are excited to have someone of Governor McDonnell’s prominence in Warren County,” said Jeff Monroe, Warren County GOP Chair. “As head of the RGA, Governor McDonnell has a unique perspective on the Republican presidential primary and certainly on the November elections. We are looking forward to hearing what he has to say.”
A reception begins at 6 p.m. followed by the dinner at 7 p.m. Tickets are $60 or reserve a table of 10 for $600. Purchase tickets online at www.gopwarrencounty.com or call Mary Jo Kubicki at 513-649-7167.
More than 500 people attended last year’s dinner, which featured Gov. John Kasich. Organizers expect about the same number of people this year to attend.
“People are excited that Ohio will once again be playing a pivotal role on not only the November election, but who our Republican presidential nominee will be. We are expecting presidential candidate campaigns to have a presence at our dinner because they know how important Warren County is to the election,” Monroe said.
