I haven’t gotten a text directly from the campaign yet. I’ve gotten a few others for local stuff, but that’s it.
My favorite is a guy who sent me a text. His nickname is, apparently, Top Gun, which is also the name of his business. He’s a gun range owner. I know that’s his nickname because he put it in quotes between his first and last name in his text. Also, every other sentence ended with an emoji. Also also, I had already voted and not for him.
Apparently this is at least his second election doing this.
I’m a little suspicious that the goal is to promote his business more than running for office.
He apparently bought a furniture store and converted the whole thing into a massive gun store with a bunch of amenities with "the largest showroom and indoor shooting range in the Midwest. "
That’s the guy. He also opened his own private school during COVID (in the gun store) where kids didn’t have to wear masks or be vaccinated.
Mystifyingly, there’s also an ice cream parlor in the store’s lobby. Even my conservative mother-in-law who was career army said, “well we’re not going there” when she found that out.
Which is yet another reason I would never vote for him.

So I’m not voting for him for all three reasons.
