Retire Jake Knotts!

Jonathon Hill — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 18:33:41 +0000

Did you know that the senator who brought national shame to our state and the Republican Party by calling our governor a “raghead” is seeking re-election?

Retire Jake Knotts

That’s right! Besides the embarrassment he is to South Carolina, Jakie is one of the foremost Senate RINOs, a gatekeeper notorious for letting good bills die in his drawer without seeing the light of day.

Check out Knotts’ Horrible Legislative Record and see for yourself!

Conservatives across the state are joining the effort to remove Senator Knotts and replace him with a principled, accountable leader. One who has the courage to advance bold tax reforms, and move our state’s economy from pitiful to prosperous.

Katrina Shealy needs your help to compete with Jakie’s special interest money. Your contribution of any amount will help send Jakie and his RINO buddies a clear message: conservatives across the state are sticking together to remove RINOs from the SC Senate!

Donate to Katrina Shealy

Thank you for all you do to advance the conservative cause!
