PRINCE FREDERICK, Md. – On September 21, 2023, two-time Republican Congressional Candidate Chris Palombi announced via a Facebook post that he has decided not to run for Congress in 2024.
Here is his full statement.
“Hey everyone! I wanted to take a moment to share some news with you all.
After much reflection and consideration, at this time, I have decided not to run for Congress in 2024. I am incredibly grateful and humbled by the support I received as the Republican nominee in both 2020 and 2022. Your encouragement and belief in me to lead and represent you have meant the world.
However, other exciting opportunities and cherished time with my family are taking precedence in my life. As much as I have been honored by the call and encouragement to run again, I believe it’s essential to listen to my heart and prioritize these aspects of my life.
Despite this decision, my passion for advocating liberty and working towards a better future remains unwavering. I am committed to supporting liberty-oriented candidates in their endeavors to succeed in the upcoming 2024 elections.
This is not the end of my political journey; it’s a bend in the path. I firmly believe that setbacks are merely opportunities for an even greater comeback. So, with enthusiasm and determination, I assure you that I will be running again in the future.
Thank you all for your unwavering support. Together, we will keep striving for a brighter and more prosperous future for our nation. Stay tuned for updates, and as always, your thoughts and ideas are valuable to me.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Chris”

I guess that includes Senate too?
A comment that should be repeated often: there are out- of- state users of this website, so they may not feel like they’re making any progress with Congress. Congress is set- up to be stagnant, to not get anything done. We have enormous US House districts, far larger than the Federalist papers allow and we’re supposed to stay confined to our own district/ state in order to get things done. The Reps / Senators don’t have it on their websites, stay within your own district/ stay within your own state, but they might as well. The way to get around your own district/ your own state is to look- up the member of Congress you want to contact, get their candidate e-mail information + do it that way. If you write a postal letter to someone else, it will still get forwarded to your local member. So, if you wanted to look someone up in WV, you would look-up their candidate e-mail address and write them there. Lets get around being told if you don’t like who’s in office, vote for someone else at election time. The Baynet, the little engine that could. Understand?
getting elected is not like a kit with instructions on how to put it together. If you follow instructions, will you get elected? Getting elected is about electability. Its about party and other factors. It shouldn’t be a sign contest. There are instructions, but if you follow them, what will happen? Getting elected is about electability. Lets admit that and have a discussion about it. Are they electable? Do they have the support/ do they have the $? How much is Ben Cardins senate seat going to be, anyway?
please keep in mind if your role is not to be a candidate, we need candidates treasurers, too.
In case you’re wondering , we have a good US House Speaker. We have a good Speaker in Mike Johnson
Good choice. Glad we’re capable of such a thing.
