Busted: Career Politician Jackie Walorski Resorts to Using Staff in TV Attack Ad

It turns out that Representative Jackie Walorski is so desperate to further her political career  she had to resort to using her own campaign staff to appear in her false, “man on the street” TV attack ad. Representative Walorski does not disclose that she employed her staff to mislead voters in the ad and tries to pass off them off as regular people.
 
“Representative Jackie Walorski is using every trick in the book trying to fool Hoosiers into electing her again. It’s pathetic that in her latest smear, Representative Walorski couldn’t find any voters willing to lie about her opponent so she had to resort to using her own staff to do her dirty work,” said Haley Morris of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. “Representative Jackie Walorski’s mean spirited attacks are par for the course and her desperate negative smears are exactly why Hoosiers are frustrated with politicians in Washington.”
