I am writing a letter in support of Grey Mills for the 95th House seat now occupied by Rep. Karen Ray. I am writing in response to the negative attacks Ray has made against him on TV and in her direct mail campaign.
She has attacked Grey’s character and his good name. She has attacked his family and anyone who supports him. She has accused him and his supporters of trying to divide the Republican Party.
Speaking of dividing the party, Ray in 2002 voted with the Democrats to end debate on realignment of districts after the Democrats had cut Iredell County the house district occupied by Frank Mitchell and the Senate seat held by R.B. Sloan. We lost two Iredell County representatives as a result of that vote.
When asked recently to speak to the Iredell County Republican Women’s Club, she told President Marcia Freuhan that she could not attend that event because she needed to be closer to her constituents in Mooresville. She then wrote a letter to the club saying she was dropping out to join a new club she was helping to start around Lake Norman.
Karen Ray is not for Iredell County; she is for Karen Ray. Iredell County needs a representative who is willing to represent all of the county and that person is Grey Mills. Grey is a personal friend of mine and I know his character is above reproach. I ask the voters of Iredell County to support Grey Mills on May 6.
