Ad copy

Your ignorance about the virus guarantees you will not get my vote. Margy Ryan, When you educate yourself more about the virus, maybe I'll get your vote back. Don't be a sheep. Wear one (mask), if it makes you feel safe, just don't force anyone else to wear one. The mask has some usefulness, but why don't we all wear one during the flu season? Many thousands of Americans die each and every year due to the flu, millions get sick. If I am coughing or sneezing, perhaps because of seasonal allergies, I will wear one to protect my fellow citizens, otherwise wearing a mask on the protection scale is below hand washing, not touching your face, and social distancing. Did you know most people who catch Covid-19 live? Maybe 1% who catch it die, and most of those who die are seniors or people who already have certain health conditions? The odds are pretty damn good that most of us will live to fight another day. This is about statist government take over in the name of public health. Republicans have warned us about the leftists in the Democratic Party. Now, we get to see them in action. Be very afraid of liberals once they have the power to usurp freedom. "Everyone in their shelter. We'll fix this pandemic!" No, they are going to make matters worse, until there is a cure. What they are going to do is kill the capitalist goose that lays the economic golden eggs. Most Americans have less than six months savings in case of an emergency. We are a paycheck to paycheck nation. If you value freedom over tyranny, donate to my campaign: WatersforSenate.com Watersforsenate.com

TacticThe ad was removed for a compliance failure, but the visible copy reveals a direct, confrontational anti-mask-mandate argument aimed at a named constituent, a risky DIY tactic that likely alienated as many voters as it energized.
