Following Unmasking of “Public Official A,” DCCC Launches Ad Campaign Targeting NC06
Now that Congressman Mark Walker “Public Official A” has joined the House GOP’s Corruption Caucus, the DCCC has officially added him to its 2020 Republican Retirement Watch List and is spreading the news with an ad campaign targeting the Congressman and his constituents on twitter.
In the company of blatantly corrupt Republicans like Rep. Duncan Hunter and Rep. Chris Collins, Congressman Walker’s new role as “Public Official A” in a massive corruption investigation, means he’ll fit right in… for the remainder of his time in Congress.
Earlier this year, the DCCC announced the first 19 Members of its Retirement Watch List, including one, Congressman Rob Woodall, who has already announced his retirement. With Walker’s addition, the list grows to an even 20.
Doubt the Retirement Watch List at your own peril… Of the 2018 Retirement Watch List Members, only 6 remain in Congress. The other 10 either retired themselves or let their voters do it for them.
“Between fighting off charges of corruption and the daily indignities of life as a Congressman in the minority, ‘Public Official A’ may not think it worthwhile to stick around,” said DCCC Spokesperson Cole Leiter. “We expect Republican retirements (and indictments!) to play a major role in Democrats’ efforts to expand our Majority this cycle.”
The DCCC will be targeting Congressman Walker and his constituents in North Carolina with the following digital ad on twitter:
