Chip in today to elect Dem govs across the country >>
Democratic governors are leading the fight against Donald Trump and his administration – and they need your help. Trump and his allies have hundreds of millions of dollars to attack our candidates, and we have to make sure we’ve got the resources to fight back. With 36 races on the map this November, 80% of Americans will cast their vote for their next governor. We need to invest NOW to expand our map, win in battleground states, protect our blue firewall of Dem govs, and flip critical states from red to blue. Can Dem govs count on you to chip in right now?
WATCH: Bevin Running Mate Scandal Drags Down Reelection Effort
“This isn’t the first time [Alvarado’s] name has come up with some sketchy allegations”
“He is the exact example of what you don’t want in politicians.”
The brewing scandal around Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin’s running mate, state Sen. Ralph Alvarado, doesn’t look like it’s going away anytime soon. The Courier Journal reported earlier this week that Alvarado allegedly received ‘illicit’ gifts as part of a larger potential Medicare fraud scheme. Now, the hosts of WLEX’s popular talk show Hey Kentucky! have some harsh words for the embattled politician and talk about the terrible start to Bevin’s reelection bid.
Watch their comments HERE and HERE:
JOSH CORMAN: “This isn’t the first time his name has come up with some sketchy allegations. I know there’s some nursing homes that have come under some scrutiny. And so right at the launch of a campaign year, having to deal with this where your name is again associated with people doing things that seem like they are over those ethical lines, it can’t be good for him.”
MATT JONES: “He continually is involved in stuff like this. He has relationships with these entities, some of which are financial, and then he goes an tries to make laws that benefit him. He is the exact example of what you don’t want in politicians.”
