The citizens of Louisville entrusted John Yarmuth with the honor of the greatest civilian service there is, representing the will of a community to its nation. Congressman Yarmuth has today breached that trust in the highest degree, putting his own ideological interests ahead of the people he swore to serve.

The results of KY 3rd District’s first two polls, the KY Young Republican’s Straw Poll and the ongoing WHAS 11 online poll both indicate a very handsome lead for Republican Todd Lally. In the former, Lally polled at an overall 54%, with his nearest competitors tied at 17% each. In the latter, Lally has remained steadily in the lead since the 36 hour mark, holding 46% and an 8 point lead over the nearest competitor in the race.

In light of the recent layoffs at Humana and Jewish Hospital and St. Mary’s Healthcare, I will unveil a campaign asking John Yarmuth to vote “No” on the Healthcare Reform bill that is currently on the floor of the House of Representatives following the University of Kentucky basketball game tomorrow on 840 WHAS. I am the first Republican Candidate in this congressional race to publicly hold John Yarmuth accountable for his support of this flawed bill. I will invite the voters to join me and sign an online petition opposing this measure.

Statement from Todd Lally, Republican Candidate for Congress, 3rd Congressional District of Kentucky In November, a warning shot was fired by the people of the United States by way of victories for Republicans in the New Jersey and Virginia Governors races.  Today, the people of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts have said “enough is enough” by electing a Republican Senator.  Scott Brown has been elected to serve in the seat that was occupied by Democrat Patriarch Senator Ted Kennedy for 46 yrs.  Securing this seat was so important to the Obama administration’s agenda that the President himself traveled to Massachusetts yesterday to campaign on Martha Coakley’s behalf and even that was not enough to sway the voters in this traditionally Democratic state.

Citing “gross misconduct in the operation of our government,” Republican Congressional candidate Todd Lally responded Tuesday to U.S. Representative John Yarmuth filing for a third term.

Like never before, we need an emboldened Republican party willing to lay out a clear, conservative agenda and the leadership willing to stand up and fight for it. We are in the midst of a culture war and have few options. We can either fight for our cherished values and freedoms or compromise to the point America is no longer as we once knew it. This is not a time for the timid or the faint of heart. This is not a time to allow special interests and personal gain to rule the

I want to thank you all for coming here today to celebrate the announcement of my official decision to enter the Congressional race for the 3rd district of Kentucky. I picked Tyler Park to announce this important decision because this is the neighborhood that I grew up in. I am the fourth of eight kids from a hard working middle class family. From simple beginnings as a child playing here in this park I grew into a military veteran of 21 years. My experiences abroad, including in Iraq and Afghanistan, have demonstrated the greatness of our nation, and provided warnings against the dangers of government corruption.
