One of the 11 Republicans in the 18-person field running to take over Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price’s former House seat has gotten a leg up in the competition to be the Trumpiest of them all thanks to an upcoming campaign appearance by Corey Lewandowski, Donald Trump’s former campaign manager:
[Bruce] LeVell, a Dunwoody jeweler who headed Trump’s diversity coalition, said Monday that Lewandowski’s March 29 appearance in Alpharetta is an indication the “Trump team is rallying around my campaign.”
“Corey and I have been brothers-in-arms fighting for President Trump since June of 2015,” he said.
Brothers in arms for Trump. Charming. Then again, one of the leading Republicans in the race is former Georgia Secretary of State Karen Handel, who helped push the Komen Foundation to pull funding from Planned Parenthood. We are talking about Georgia Republicans, here.
Daily Kos-endorsed Democrat Jon Ossoff leads the field as a whole, according to a recent (flawed) poll, but while Democrats have largely coalesced behind Ossoff, the Republican field is big and fractured. That means Ossoff can’t rest for one minute between now and the April 18 special election, which will be followed by a June 20 runoff if no candidate gets more than 50 percent of the vote in April (as is likely).
Can you give $3 to help send Jon Ossoff to Congress?
