Miller-Meeks v Bohannan: A Clear Choice For IA-01

?w=576&h=402

It’s a clear choice for IA-01

Background: “Three Percenters have been linked to bomb plots targeting U.S. government buildings and Muslim communities, as well as a 2020 scheme to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) that involved “the acquiring and detonating of explosives to divert police attention.” – Washington Post

Statement from the Bohannan campaign:

News broke yesterday that my opponent, Mariannette Miller-Meeks, promoted photos from a campaign event featuring the flag of a far-right extremist militia group, the “Three Percenters,” that has been designated as a terrorist group in Canada.

It’s horrifying to me that my opponent and her team would align themselves with the Three Percenters despite their history of violent and extreme plots, including the deadly insurrection at the Capitol on January 6th.

Let me be clear: Our leaders should be focused on coming together to deliver results for Iowans, not spreading dangerous disinformation and giving a platform to extremist groups.

Southeastern Iowa deserves better. You deserve better. And I promise that when I’m elected to Congress, I’ll fight for Iowa, not embrace those who try to divide us.

Respectfully,

Christina Bohannan
Candidate for Iowa’s First District
