KELLY NGUYEN THANKS SUPPORTERS FOR HARD WORK
Jul 21st
ATLANTA, GEORGIA – The Committee to Elect Kelly Nguyen would like to thank all the supporters who have donated their time and resources to spreading the message of limited government in Georgia’s 5th Congressional district. With Kelly receiving 40.4 percent in last night’s Republican primary election, the hard work of our volunteers showed at the polls.
The Kelly Nguyen campaign centered on the US Constitution and limited government. Kelly Nguyen advocates a return to a sound monetary system and an end to corporate bailouts and stimulus packages.
“We made a great showing at the polls yesterday and it proves that the ideas of limited government and the Constitution are still popular in Georgia,” Nguyen said this morning. “We gained a tremendous amount of knowledge from this experience and we are glad we ran a fair and open campaign,” she added.
Since qualifying for the Republican ballot over two months ago, Kelly and her volunteers have met many of the 5th District’s voters. “We have knocked on doors in the District almost every day since qualifying, and it has been a privilege to meet so many warm and friendly people,” Nguyen said.
Campaign manager Travis Jones also believes the campaign has ended well. “We ran a strong campaign with many dedicated volunteers backing our efforts. We learned far more than we expected and we made some great friends along the way,” Jones said.
Jones also expressed his gratitude to the campaign’s volunteers. “Above all, I want all the people who donated their time and resources to know how grateful we are for their contributions. In the end, this was only possible thanks to their hard work and we are grateful for their dedication,” he said.
Kelly Nguyen echoed Jones’ comments. “As we wrap up the campaign, I want all the volunteers and contributors to know this was only possible with their help. I will be forever grateful for their dedication to the campaign and its ideals.”

KELLY NGUYEN PLEDGES TO REFUSE CONTRIBUTIONS FROM BANKS RECEIVING BAILOUT OR STIMULUS FUNDS
Jul 15th
ATLANTA, GEORGIA – The Primary focus of my campaign from the beginning has been putting our financial house in order. Part of the answer requires us to take a hard look at the Banking Industry and see where they failed and what we might need to do to make sure that never happens again. How can a politician hold accountable an industry like Big Banks when they are accepting campaign contributions from them?
I personally pledge to never accept contributions from any bank that has received tax payer money to rectify the bad business decisions that they made. Those decisions directly impacted thousands of people in the 5th District. Furthermore, I challenge my opponent in the primary to make a similar pledge and to immediately return any contributions that he has already received from Bailed Out Banks.
The Republican Party primary election will be held on July 20, 2010. For more information please visit www.votekelly2010.com. To schedule an interview with Ms. Nguyen, please contact campaign manager Travis Jones at (678) 694-7219.
