The Walton County Republican Victory Center will open today in south Walton. Grand opening celebration starts at noon. The office is located on US Highway 98 next door to the Good News Methodist Church, the new precinct location for that area, in the Southhaven Center. Same place as Copy Systems, I believe. Come by and enjoy refreshments today at noon and meet the local candidates one on one.

Republicans receive death threat
By ASHLEY AMASON


A death threat was sent via email to the Republican Party Victory Center in Santa Rosa Beach.
An anonymous tip was sent to the DeFuniak Springs Herald regarding the threat, which has since been verified with Tim Norris, chairman of the Republican Party in Walton County, and the Walton County Sheriff?s Department.
Administrative Capt. Eddie Farris of the Walton County Sheriff?s Department confirmed that a death threat had been made and ?targeted all politicians in general.? Norris more specifically stated it threatened politicians in Washington, not any local candidates.
The threat is currently under investigation by the local authorities and the FBI and authorities. Information is limited at this time, but Capt. Farris stated they would provide more information as soon as it became available.

From the reports I have heard, the threats were not made by a Democrat. Just wanted to clear that up before rumors get started.

WRobert, you say it has "hit the news"- where? Newspaper, TV?

Oh come on, rumors and baseless speculation are way more fun than facts:biggrin:

This really isn't funny, Skunky. :( Especially in light of the breaking news that the Arkansas Democratic Party Chairman was shot at party headquarters today.

Cute jokes and baseless speculation have their place, but not here.

From what I was told, the Walton County guy has been around and creeping out local Republicans for years. This incident was just an escalation/further deterioration of his mental facilities.

What is up w/ violence against campaign headquarters? Is it because people are fed up w/ politricks, but their elected officials have security?
