Send Holtorf to Congress

-

The undocument­ed Democrat’s seat — Ken Buck to be exact — is going to come down to Richard Holtorf or Jerry Sonnenberg, both good men.

I’m supporting Richard. I like Jerry; there’s really nothing negative anyone could say about Jerry. He served us well here in Colorado. Jerry did say he was rated A by the Liberty Scorecard but in 2022, the only one I could find, it’s a D. I think he could have done more on some things but the same could be said of Richard.

My family is voting for Richard because of his military service: 29 years, two tours in Iraq, retired a full colonel and came home to run his family’s Buffalo Springs ranch. They have a dry land farm plus a cattle feeding operation. Richard has shown his unwavering support for agricultur­e and the second amendment, his support for Israel, his fight for our water rights, and of course his support for Trump.

We need new faces in Washington, DC, not more polished politician­s. Jerry served 16 years then came back to Logan County and become commission­er — like I said, a polished politician. I want someone who is like Trump, an American first, a businessma­n then a politician, because our country needs them.

Richard understand­s how things work in the country. Right now there’s no place for electric vehicles and he has the common sense to know they still require oil and grease and you can’t go to NAPA and pick up a new battery. He’s all on board with DRILL BABY DRILL; he knows we need American oil. He sees how corrupt the Biden family is and the swamp in general.

The Democrats will hammer him about when his holster malfunctio­ned as he was running to vote. It doesn’t happen often. I had it happen with a .38 (I have I replaced the holster of course).

Also, they will hammer him on his Buckwheat comment. Like most of you, I didn’t know “The Little Rascals” had anything to do with race or that the term was racist; my grandfathe­r called me Buckwheat and I’ve called my children, cousins and friends Buckwheat

And Richard, like every rancher I’ve ever met or known, won’t ask for help so I’m asking you to donate even if it’s just a couple dollars. We need Holtorf in Congress. Let’s help Richard and Trump to MAKE AMERICA GREATER THAN IT EVER WAS.
