Clearly, that was not an argument I ever intended to make. Cool ratio, by the way

Reply from Charlie Rybak: I have to be honest, this is not a very convincing argument about who I should vote for instead.

Got a fun text about Michele Tafoya from a PAC whose name is really hard to find. (It's "Sheepdog PAC") I'm not sure this is how voting works? (Am *I* a liberal Californian?)

Michele Tafoya is NOT a conservative. She’s a pro-abortion Hollywood liberal.

Tafoya lashed out while discussing a conservative plan to stop abortion.

She called banning abortion “dumb” and said she’d “go to Washington and march” to keep it legal.

Watch the video. See her true colors for yourself.

Michele Tafoya attacked our values. Now she wants our votes.

Vote NO on liberal Californian Michele Tafoya.

Hi Christopher, it's Jake with Anders Folk's campaign for Hennepin County Attorney.

Anders is a Democrat, a Marine, and former Acting U.S. Attorney. Anders has taken on the toughest cases. He has held accountable those who violate civil rights, target houses of worship, and put our communities at risk. Anders believes that in Hennepin County, no one is above the law, including ICE agents who abuse their power.

Anders is endorsed by Mayor Jacob Frey and former U.S Attorney Andy Luger.

The primary is coming up on August 11th; can Anders count on your support?
