What People Are Saying

“For the past six years, I’ve had the privilege of knowing and working alongside Forrest Woodwick. During that entire time, Forrest has consistently focused on what actually matters in politics: doing the work. While serving as Chairman, Forrest often had to navigate difficult circumstances within his own district. Despite facing division, personal attacks, and an environment that too often prioritized conflict over collaboration, he never lost sight of the mission. Rather than engaging in unnecessary drama, Forrest stayed focused on educating voters, gathering signatures for school board candidates, helping people understand propositions and initiatives, and supporting efforts that strengthen our communities and our party. As someone who has been trusted by my district to serve as chairman unopposed for three consecutive elections and who has been fortunate enough to help achieve results that hadn’t been accomplished in over 30 years in our area, I have had the opportunity to work with many dedicated activists and leaders. Forrest stands out among them. It is incredibly difficult to find people who are willing to put in the time, effort, and energy required to do meaningful political work. Forrest is one of those rare individuals. Even after being treated unfairly and discouraged by some within his own district, he has remained committed to advancing conservative causes and helping others succeed. I have always respected Forrest’s steady demeanor, his willingness to do the hard work, and his focus on accomplishing tangible goals rather than creating unnecessary division. He is one of the people I have been most honored to work alongside and get to know over the past six years, and I believe his dedication and service deserve far more appreciation than they have received.”

“I began to attend Legislative District meetings to learn a little about how government works once I retired from teaching and had a little more time. As someone who is not a Precinct Committee person and doesn’t even live in the Marlette Precinct, I write this not to benefit myself, but to benefit you who live there. My attendance began at the end of the present LD chair who had asked Forrest to step in for him. Right away, I noticed how much more organized the meetings were, with an agenda projected on the screen and actually getting through the agenda. My hope was to hear some of the people who run for office. I made it a point to attend as many monthly meetings as possible but stopped attending when chaos returned, some speakers I wanted to hear were cancelled (not by Forrest, but by his predecessor who returned, wanting his power back). But I am still involved with the small, dedicated group pictured on the home page. Please don’t believe some of the mailers sent to you with the negative comments and names of hardworking Precinct Committee people in your area crossed out. They have hosted postcard parties, spent their own money on stamps and other things for this effort, and I have enjoyed getting to work with them and become better acquainted. Since I don’t know how to write about each person on this website, I’ll just say that it would benefit you immensely if you voted for each of them. They get the job done, and we have fun doing it together! ”

“Forrest Woodwick is dedicated, hard working, intelligent, committed to integrity in our bylaws, our County and our State. I’ve worked side by side with Forrest and have always found him to be a consistent straight shooter, honest, fair and transparent. Forrest is countable and trustworthy. If I had to go to war, I would want him in the trenches with me. I don’t say that lightly, as there is no higher compliment when your life is at stake.”

“I knew Forrest when he stepped in to assume the responsibility of Chairman of LD 26. He transformed a dysfunctional LD into a thriving LD. PC's started to attend the meetings again. Forrest is a true patriot, loves this country, believes in the American dream and upholds the moral values that are the fibers of God-loving citizens.”
