Late last week, Henry and I travelled down to Morehead City to visit with the Crystal Coast Republican Women at the Carteret County Republican Party headquarters. This women's club is special to me because when I was in law school, I was an intern for then-Representative Jean Preston who represented Carteret County when Republicans were in the minority. The summer I interned with Rep. Preston was when I was looking at serving on my local town council. Rep. Preston was a true public servant, who taught me the value of putting constituents first and standing up for conservative ideals. She was also great at politics and gave me some timeless political advice:
(1) Knock on as many doors as possible and don't forget to ask people to vote for you; and
(2) Ask your dentist for money
Let me pause - My name is Tom Murry and I'm asking for your vote.
Secondly - your investment is crucial to our success. Donate online or contributions may be mailed to:

Rep. Preston's advice was spot-on and I carry the lessons I learned from her with me every day.
Another special connection I have to the Crystal Coast GOP women's club is Ann Martin - the mother of former Chief Justice Mark Martin. Ann is a past president of the CCGOP women's club and worked tirelessly to elect conservatives, especially conservative judges. I was fortunate to get to know Ann when I served as Chief Legal Counsel at the NC Judicial Branch.
Carteret County elects Republicans and it was great to get back down east to visit with the hard-working ladies who work the polls to get conservatives into office.
