New PAC in town

Young professionals in Cincinnati are forming a political action committee to get the people elected they believe will move the city forward.

A kick-off for the CincyPAC takes place Friday at Bang Night Club downtown.
Here's the invitation.

And here's the description of what the group is all about:


WHAT: CincyPAC Kick Off Event

WHEN: Friday, July 20, 2007
6:00 p.m. – 10 p.m. (Speech around 7:30)

WHERE: Bang Night Club
314 W. 4th St.

WHO: Young Professionals, Local Elected Officials and Candidates

CINCINNATI— For years, young professionals have been talking about the need to make their voices as passionate citizens heard, and on Friday July 20, 2007, these passionate citizens will put their money where their mouth is.

Cincinnati area young professionals have created a local political action committee, called CincyPAC, geared towards holding city officials accountable to moving Cincinnati forward and ensuring that the city appeals to and caters towards young professionals.

Cincinnati has been talking about attracting and retaining the creative class for a long time, but now it is time to do something about it. CincyPAC will support candidates who believe in policies that support vibrant arts and entertainment, affordable housing and bold economic development, crime prevention and quality education in the city of Cincinnati and surrounding areas.

CincyPAC will host a kick-off event at Bang Nightclub on Friday, June 20th from 6-10pm, an event open to the public. Suggested donation is $25.

Translation: Gay people want your money so they can spend it trying to elect politicians who support gay rights.

well, Darren Tolliver is a nice enough person but, I understand, a Mallory operative.

Robert Richardson is also nice enough, for his father being active in the AFL-CIO Labor Council, NAACP Cincinnati Chapter and Banks Working Group.

I wondered what Greg Nomansland had been up to since losing Pepper's mayor's race for him.

Any conservatives on the PAC host committee? Unlike UNITE Cincinnati PAC at least these folks are actually doing something political (and have more than 1 member).

Landsman landed a cush job doing events at the Freedom Ctr, so Daddy Pepper came through for him-
I don't think Landsman even has a background or experience in that kind of work

So... young professionals by nature are gay?

I did go to the event and did meet a nice guy who has outstanding ideas for the city. His name was John Eby and actually stayed for a while. Maybe that means this new PAC will get some good support from other officials or people seeking office.

Leave CincyPAC alone. Their only undisclosed motive is meeting other local singles.
