Tea Party Republican Ted Cruz will attempt to woo San Diegans today by rallying in Mission Valley. Will his down-ballot twin Republican lobbyist Denise Gitsham – who told a crowd of Tea Partiers that she’s “one of them” — finally break her silence and endorse Cruz?
The two have a lot in common: both of them support a flat tax, would cut Social Security and Medicare, and want to defund Planned Parenthood.
Earlier this year her Republican primary opponent, Jacquie Atkinson, said she would support the eventual nominee, even if it means supporting Donald Trump.
“With Ted Cruz in town, today is the perfect day for Denise Gitsham to break her silence and endorse a GOP Presidential nominee,” said Barb Solish of the DCCC. “Endorsing Cruz makes sense as the pair are lockstep on the issues – from supporting a flat tax to defunding Planned Parenthood.”
