This is a somewhat different memo because I am going to concentrate on helping Meg Heap, who I fell in love with when we first met, and everything I thought she would do she has done and then some.  If we do not want to turn Savannah into a St Louis,where Soros funded the district attorney, then it is imperative she be re-elected.

Over the next few days I am sending out an e mail appeal to help her (see attached.).  I  wanted to hold a previously canceled meet and greet but in view of the virus that is unreasonable. We talked about a ZOOM meeting but that is too cumbersome because I am appealing to an expanded  list of friends who I hope care about law and order and fair and equitable justice. If you already gave please consider doing some more.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give Meg.

Competence not outside Soros money, one would hope, should dictate why people vote for a specific candidate. If one looks at Meg Heap's accomplishments, her success rate of convictions while maintaining high standards and compassion for both victims as well as alleged  perpetrators and what she has done outside the courtroom for victims and how she took a destroyed,dispirited department and brought it back to award status then, Meg should/must be your candidate.

Her opponent is unschooled in administration, left the department and went into private practice and has some issues pertaining to how she has handled some current clients.  Reputedly her campaign is being substantially funded by Soros .

If Savannah and Chatham County do not wish to become another St Louis, then Meg should/must be your candidate.  Finally, if serious outside money is offensive to you then Meg's candidacy should//must command your support.


I make no bones about Meg and my support for her re-election.  If you have already given to her campaign please consider upping your commitment. If you have not contributed then please do so.

Thanks in advance for any consideration shown this re-appeal. 

Sincerely,  Me
