In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“Matt Little is running against Donald Trump, and I'm really running to represent the people of the Second District.”
“He's got the extreme left of his party backing him, and so I'm not going to tie him to anybody. He's done it all by himself”
“I've had people come up to me and say: 'I really appreciate your authenticity, your character,'”
“They tend to vote for the person as much as the party”
“One thing about the 2nd district is they tend to vote for the person more than the party, so I'm really running about what I can bring to the job rather than what a Republican can bring to the job.”
“This race is not about who can create the most noise”
