Joe Kent is an angry, divisive conspiracy theorist who champions a hateful, white nationalist agenda that will harm our community.
Summary
Voters in the Portland media market need to see ads on Broadcast TV, voters in the Seattle media market need to see ads on cable, and voters district wide – especially women without a college degree – need to see ads on streaming, digital, and read mail that:
- Joe Kent has repeatedly called for a national abortion ban with no exceptions for rape, incest, even the life of the woman. His plan and his allies would even ban abortion here in Washington.
Starting the seventh week prior to the November 5 general election, voters in the Portland media market need to see ads on Broadcast TV, voters in the Seattle media market need to see ads on cable, and voters district wide – especially women without a college degree – need to see ads on streaming, digital, and read mail that:
- Joe Kent’s goal is not to fix the border and keep our communities safe, but to close off America to preserve a white majority. Kent promotes white supremacist conspiracies, like the Great Replacement Theory, at the expense of national security and what is best for our community. He even called for shutting down the borders for 20 years to protect a white majority
- Joe Kent’s angry rhetoric adds fuel to the fire, creating more division and instability. He has repeatedly been linked to white nationalists and Nazi sympathizers. He’s promised to “hunt down” his political opponents and engage in “strategic decapitation” of them. He hired a member of the Proud Boys, a violent group of racist street thugs. We know Joe Kent will create dangerous situations that will divide America and break the things that made our country great.
