HARRISBURG — The Republican Party of Pennsylvania has released a new video examining Christine Donohue’s campaign associates.
The new video, “Obama Liberal”, highlights the checkered pasts of Donohue’s campaign team, which includes a major Obama fundraiser to an associate who was previously convicted of election fraud.
“Christine Donohue has some questions to answer about company she’s been keeping,” Republican Party of Pennsylvania Communications Director Megan Sweeney said. “Christine Donohue not only shares Barack Obama’s liberal agenda, she even shares a close advisor with him. Given that one of her closest advisors was a major player in Barack Obama’s money machine and spearheaded a campaign to limit our Second Amendment rights, it’s not surprising Christine Donohue has received the backing of extreme liberal special interest groups.
“At a time when scandals have rocked the Supreme Court, why did Christine Donohue choose someone who was convicted of election fraud to run her campaign? The fact that Christine Donohue would choose to employ someone with a track record of election fraud should serve as a cause of deep concern for Pennsylvania voters.
The transcript of the video, entitled “Obama Liberal,” can be found below:
