Republican Primary Candidates Brevard State Committeewoman
Lee Anderson-Savage
Name: Carlyle “Carlie” Rogers
Age: 66
City of Residence: Melbourne (Suntree)
Occupation: Brevard County Republican State Committeewoman
Education: B.S. from The George Washington University
Experience:
I
have been a homemaker and educator plus a conservative Republican
activist for over forty years having held numerous leadership positions
in the Republican Party of several states as well as an elected position
as a member of the Board of Education in Tolland, CT. After moving to
Florida ten years ago I was elected Republican Precinct Committeewoman
in 2003 and I was elected four years ago in 2008 to my most current
position as Brevard’s Republican State Committeewoman.
What makes you the best candidate in 300 words or less?
I
believe I am the most experienced and successful candidate with a long
record of growing the Republican Party, electing Republicans, and
representing Brevard Republicans with a strong voice at the state
Republican Party. I continue to be committed to giving my all to
electing Republican Mitt Romney for President, replacing our Democrat
senator with a Republican, and electing Republicans in all our local,
state, and federal races.
I have been married to my husband Jeff Rogers (COL, US Army Retired)
for 44 years. I believe this along with the privilege of having been an
Army daughter and Army mother of three married sons with numerous
combat deployments to Iraq & Afghanistan has given me a special
perspective. I cannot help but think what a travesty it is for those
serving in uniform today to have Barack Obama as their
Commander-in-Chief. We Republicans in Florida need to right that wrong.
Also, I have served as the Brevard Republican Executive Committee
(BREC) liaison to many of Brevard’s numerous Republican Clubs. This has
provided me the opportunity to listen to club members’ concerns plus it
has allowed me to keep them informed. Additionally, I’m happy to
report that we’ve been very successful in bringing new people into the
Republican Party.
I’m pleased and honored to have the endorsement of the Ronald Reagan
Club and the personal endorsement of John Stemberger, Former Political
Director of the Republican Party of Florida -- "Carlie
Rogers is no 'Johnnie Come Lately' to the GOP. She is a seasoned and
principled Republican who is well respected around the state and
therefore worthy of another term as State Committeewoman."
Name: Regina A. Weiler, a.k.a. Rocket
Age: 24
City of Residence: Merritt
Island
Occupation: Instructor
at Brevard Community College
Website: http://reginaweiler.com/
Education: M.A.:
Communications Mass Media, Master’s Certificate: Emergency Management/Homeland
Security, B.A.: Political Science/Pre-law
Experience:
I am an instructor at Brevard
Community College Palm Bay. My political
experience includes travelling with and working as a Staff member on the Rick
Scott gubernatorial campaign. In
addition, I have served as a UCF legislative scholar for Representative Ritch
Workman and Representative Scott Plakon.
I am active in political issues on the local level, supporting fiscally
conservative candidates whose principles align with the conservative
Republicans of Brevard County.
What makes you the best candidate in 300 words or less?
I am an experienced door-to-door
and call center campaigner, Vice Chair of the Republican Liberty Caucus of
Central East Florida, and an active member of the Brevard Republican Executive
Committee serving as Precinct Committeewoman in District 2, Precinct 201. I am also an active member of Space Coast
Patriots, and Brevard 9-12. I was an
early supporter of both Marco Rubio and Rick Scott, and an active participant
in both successful campaigns. Governor
Scott has recognized me on several occasions for my enthusiastic support. Within the last 60 days of door to door
canvassing.
I have converted a minimum of 25 independents, NPAs, and non-registered young voters, plus one Democrat, to register to vote as Republicans. I am a Communications Specialist who has served in the Florida Legislature as the UCF Legislative Scholar under Rep. Ritch Workman and Rep. Scott Plakon. This experience taught me how to interact with constituents. I am able to mesh tried and true standards with fresh innovation. Finally, I am well-versed in popular media techniques to rally young people.
I am running as the “grass roots
candidate” because when I look at my local Republican party, I see a stagnation
of leadership, and an unwillingness to change and adapt to the coming political
future. Young people in my age group
have been stymied, time and again, in their bid to become active participants
in local politics, and I aim to change these self-destructive practices. I will not ignore any Republican, of any age,
when I am elected. Town hall meetings
will serve as a community forum, and I will actively participate in all Republican
organizations on the Space Coast, not just select clubs.
I have the support of the
Republican Liberty Caucus, Space Coast Patriots, Brevard 9/12, and the
endorsement of the Republican Liberty Catalyst Fund.
