Jeff Jackson wants you to know the truth about his primary opponent.


Friends,

The primary is next week and before we get there I just want to take a moment to tell you what I really think about my Democratic opponent:

I think he’s a good person, a good father, and has run a positive and honest campaign.

Why say this? Because the politics of phony anger is toxic. We all deserve better.

I’m running to be your nominee because I think there are things I can bring to this office that people would value, and I think I’ve shown that over the last several years.

I’m not running to find new ways to be fake angry. There are plenty of politicians who’ve got that covered — we don’t need one more.

The primary is next Tuesday. If you want to see someone in Congress who is excited about our future, someone who runs on what we can accomplish and how much it would mean for people, then I’m asking for your support.

It’s actually coming from a place of strength. He doesn’t have to pander.
