The McClintock Campaign asks Who Is The Real Jessica Morse?

Mariposa, CA...We published the post debate release from the Morse campaign and here is the post debate piece from the McClintock campaign. Sunday’s debate between Congressman McClintock and Jessica Morse highlighted a clear choice for voters in District 4, a choice that is as clear as it gets. While Rep. McClintock highlighted a vision of economic growth, national security, and local control of our lands, Morse stuck to her script of lying about McClintock’s record (and her own) and trotted out the leftist playbook of more government, higher taxes, heavier regulations, more bureaucracy, and fewer choices.

Jessica Morse was Clear Winner in CA-04 Debate According to Her Campaign

Mariposa, CA...Released yesterday by the Morse Campaign..."This afternoon, challenger and first-time candidate Jessica Morse and Congressman Tom McClintock faced off in their first debate for the 4th Congressional District seat. In the debate, Morse stressed her local roots as a fifth-generation Northern Californian and her commitment to fighting for the issues important to the community that raised her. As expected, career politician McClintock struggled to explain his vote to eliminate coverage for people with pre-existing conditions – a position that would negatively affect nearly 300,000 of his constituents. Further, McClintock couldn't defend his vote against a budget bill that would’ve provided the district with funding to prevent forest fires.
