AP Report: Shady Dem Group’s Meddling in House Races Exposed
An explosive report from AP this morning uncovered a secret Democrat group who preyed on retired, disabled Trump supporters and recruited them to run as independent candidates for office with the sole intention of siphoning votes from Republicans in key swing districts that could decide the House majority.
Aside from this grotesque display of deception against American veterans, it has also been flagged as possibly illegal.
According to the report, money for this scheme “traces back to Democratic consulting firms.” A former Justice Department official said there’s likely “a wide variety of federal and state criminal violations,” while another legal expert called it “shady and unethical.”
Which congressional races – that we know of – did this secret Democrat group meddle in?
- IA-01: Mariannette Miller-Meeks
- IA-03: Zach Nunn
- NE-02: Don Bacon
- MT-01: Ryan Zinke
- VA-02: Jen Kiggans
- And to boost Angie Craig in MN-02.
This isn’t the first time Democrat groups resorted to dirty tricks in House elections.
“This unethical, and possibly illegal, scheme just shows how low Democrats will go to try and compete. Clearly, they know that voters don’t trust their party’s extreme positions, and as such, their radical candidates can’t win on their own records,” said CLF spokeswoman Courtney Parella. “Democrats should be ashamed and held accountable for preying on retired or disabled Americans.”
