TNGOP, NASHVILLE,
TN
– At a candidate forum Wednesday afternoon, Democrat State
House candidate Bo Mitchell danced around a question from a
voter about who he would be supporting for President this
November. When it became evident that Mitchell would not give
a straightforward answer, the voter pressed him further, but
Mitchell still refused to give an
answer.
“Apparently Bo
Mitchell is more concerned about playing politics by skirting
the issues than addressing a simple question,” said Tennessee
Republican Party Executive Director Adam Nickas. “Bo Mitchell
has no problem asking voters if they will vote for him in
November, but when he is pressed by a concerned voter about
who he will be supporting for President, he refuses to
answer.”
Voters at the
candidate forum were told they would be able to ask the
candidates about issues important to them this election, but
Mitchell refused to give voters direct answers. Mitchell
claimed he would be supporting the candidate that “wants to
move this country forward.” Interestingly, Mitchell’s comment
mirrors President Obama’s 2012 campaign slogan of
“Forward.”
“If Bo Mitchell
thinks the policies of Barack Obama, which have resulted in 23
million Americans struggling for work, massive budget
deficits, and new taxes from Obamacare, will move Tennessee
‘forward,’ then the voters in House District 50 deserve to
know. Voters are eager for Bo Mitchell to come clean on a
simple question- Who does he support for President?”
