When Gov. Dan McKee defeated two high-profile women for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination, he ensured Republican nominee Ashley Carus would focus on winning the female vote. Both Karus and Republican State Speaker Sue Sienqui came out swinging, portraying McKee as a misogynist. Mackey, on the other hand, gained significant support from his female political opponents.
Congressional candidate General Treasurer Seth McGagher has portrayed his Republican opponent, former Cranston Mayor Alan Fong, as allied with right-wing extremists.
Volks endorses McKee for governor
Helena Buonanno Fawkes, who was narrowly defeated in the Democratic primary, formally endorsed Gov. Dan McKee in the November general election.
“I will always vote for the Democratic candidate in the general election,” Fawkes said. “But before I formally endorse Governor McKee, have him personally commit to ending abortion bans affecting one-third of women in the state with his 24-year budget. He reiterated his support for women’s choice and made that promise to me personally yesterday, and I now stand by him for governor. We cannot allow a Ron DeSantis-loving Republican who just moved here from Illinois to become Rhode Island’s next governor.”
Karus replaces DeSantis with Volks as her most admired politician
Although she has not won the endorsement of Helena Buonanno Folkes, Republican gubernatorial candidate Ashley Karus said Folkes is the politician she admires the most. I said it was Ron DeSantis, but today (Friday) on WJAR-TV, she said it’s Volks, praising her for her success and for her close race for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination. she because she is a woman. Democratic gubernatorial candidate Gov. Dan McKee has supported women’s choice. Kars describes herself as pro-life during the debate.
It’s clear that Calus is trying to play the gender card. On Twitter, she wrote: I heard that he is not good at talking to women. Rhode Island Republican Party Chairman Sue Sienki tweeted, “Ashley, watch out. I heard he hangs up on strong and smart women. He even wonders if women have brain cells.” I have.โ
Meanwhile, Callus on social media asked Mackie to discuss whether it will be televised statewide.
Magaziner calls on Fung to cancel campaign with election opponent Jason Smith
Treasury secretary and congressional candidate Seth McGagher has told former Cranston mayor Alan Fong, a Republican opponent, that Huang is running for Missouri Republican House of Representatives Jason Smith, among Republicans who will deny the 2020 election. I am asking you to cancel the campaign event you are holding with your legislators. .
“Again, Alan Fong is choosing to side with the extremists rather than stand by Rhode Islanders’ values,” Magader said. “For the first campaign event of Von’s general election, he denied the results of the 2020 election, co-sponsored a nationwide abortion ban, and made state co-chairs of Trump’s 2016 and 2020 campaigns. I invited Rep. Jason Smith, who served.
โโ The Rhode Islanders I speak to every day want to live in a democracy with free and fair elections and where women make their own health care decisions, not politicians in Washington. I am calling on Alan Fong to cancel his campaign event with extremist Rep. Jason Smith,” Magajer said.
