I am a Democrat. One difference between Democrats and our opponents is that we stand for what we say we stand for. Take the republican candidate running against me. The words out his mouth will have you believing that he is strongly against DEI initiatives. He says he is against hiring on the basis of being a specific gender or race. But his campaign is centered on that very ideal. He is just like every other republican candidate. He has chosen to run for this office because republican ideology requires their candidates to meet gender and race standards. The entire republican party is DEI, yet every last one of them will lie to me and to you and to the rest of the country about this. DEI is not a political issue, it has nothing to do with the operation of our government, yet he stands here and lies about it. He cannot be trusted to represent you, the voters, if he cannot even honestly represent himself.
